WICKED WIT OF CRICKET (HB)

'The English,' George Bernard Shaw once remarked, 'are not very spiritual people, so they invented cricket to give them some idea of eternity.' Some might call it eternity. Others might regard it as heaven. This is a sumptuous feast of cricket's greatest tales, legends and anecdotes, spread out across the clubhouse table in bite-sized pieces. Brings together the sport's most famous quips, insults, pranks, mishaps, incredible facts, outrageous incidents, plus all those great moments of commentary where the words did not come out quite as intended.
