Book description
A bumper collection of the funniest anecdotes, jokes and stories from
cricket's best-loved personalities. Cricket is a funny old game -- even
when rain stops play! Now you can read not only the most popular stories
by five of the game's all-time great characters -- Richie Benaud, Dickie
Bird, Henry Blofeld, Brian Johnston and Fred Trueman - but also the
humour and insights of modern players including Michael Atherton, Andrew
Flintoff, Darren Gough, Kevin Pietersen and Shane Warne. Crammed full of
dozens of hilarious anecdotes about legendary Test cricketers such as
Ian Botham, Geoffrey Boycott, Denis Compton, Michael Holding and Merv
Hughes -- plus broadcasting gaffes, sledging, short-sighted umpires and
the first male streaker at Lord's!
