Binding: Softcover Pages: 282 Dimensions: 22.8 x 15.4 x 1.5 cm +++ Edited by Anthony Bateman and Jeffrey Hill +++ Few other team sports can equal the global reach of cricket. Rich in history and tradition, it is both quintessentially English and expansively international, a game that has evolved and changed dramatically in recent times.

Presenting a global panoramic view of cricket's complicated development, its unique adaptability and its political and sporting controversies, the book provides a rich insight into a unique sporting and cultural here.
