The life and times of the great Middlesex and England wicketkeeper-batsman John 'JT' Murray. A treasure trove of cricketing stories is recounted by Murray, who describes in droll anecdotal detail the great Tests, tours and the parade of celebrities, sporting and otherwise, that he encountered in 25 years as a professional sportsman.
The first dual biography of Surrey and England 'spin twins' Jim Laker and Tony Lock, who helped their county and Test teams to an unparalleled run of dominance in the 1950s. Besides their peerless achievements on the field, the two men had little in common, although both courted controversy. This is the full story of the pair's uneasy partnership.
Last Wicket Stand is a refreshingly honest examination of county cricket, middle age, identity and coping with change. In his 50th year, Richard Clarke followed his beloved Essex CCC throughout the 2019 season, the last before the introduction of a controversial new competition that threatened to undermine domestic cricket in England forever.
