Description

From laughs and legends to sledges and stuff-ups, this is the cricket season gift.From a horse that took a triple hat-trick, to captains who tossed over the telephone, and an umpire who went missing in mid-over for a wee, Favourite Cricket Yarns is a compelling smorgasboard of tall and mostly true stories, from Australian cricket's master storyteller Ken Piesse.Gaffes, sledges, bloopers and quips just in time from the man who, in the words of Ricky Ponting, lives, eats and breathes cricket. Ken Piesse is a writer and commentator and an author of more than 40 books on cricket.
