Description

Crickets Strangest Tales is a fascinating collection of cricketing weirdness and theres a lot of it to choose from!
Within these pages youll find a game that was played on ice, meet a plague of flying ants who failed to dampen players enthusiasm, and examples of the grand old tradition of one-armed teams versus one-legged teams. The stories in this book are bizarre, fascinating, hilarious, and, most importantly, true.

Fully revised, redesigned and updated with a selection of new material for 2016, this book is the perfect gift for the cricket fanatic in your life.
