'Every sport is a language, and cricket more than most. In Niall Edworthy, it has found a very entertaining translator.' Tim de Lisle, former editor of Wisden 'Fabulous! Very, very entertaining ... a brilliant collection of knowledge and humour, an education for any budding cricketer, and a must-read for all cricket anoraks.' Chris Adams, ex-England, Derbyshire and Sussex 'In a game proud of its literature, this book stands out for bringing out the marvellous eccentricity of this unique game. Meticulously researched, this is a gift every cricket lover will savour as it will both educate and amuse them. An ideal book to illustrate a game that has always been willing to laugh at itself.' Mihir Bose, Author and Broadcaster
