No Balls and Googlies: A Cricket Companion

By Tibballs, Geoff

Book Description

No-Balls and Googlies provides a refreshingly amusing insight into many aspects of 'the elegant game' of cricket, exploring its origins, traditions, records, milestones, memorable moments and remarkable facts. For example, did you know that cricket was classified as one of several illegal pastimes in the fourteenth century? Or that Jasper Vinall became the first known cricketing fatality when he was struck by a bat in Sussex in 1624? Or that the eight-ball over continued in Australia until it was finally abolished in 1980? For cricket fanatics the world over, No-Balls and Googlies also provides an amusing insight into the sport's many quirky characters, and presents a wealth of facts, trivia, quotations and stories taken from this great sport's illustrious history.
