Paperback. Zustand: New. With one ball left of the World Cup final, England needed five runs to win. Mo stood in the middle of the pitch as Jos Buttler whispered in his ear: "If anyone can do it, it's you." Mo shook his head modestly and wandered back to the stumps. He tapped his bat twice on the ground and watched as Pat Cummins sprinted in: it was going to be a bouncer, he knew it would be a bouncer."Mo Akeel." Mo snapped back to reality. "Are you listening?" Ah. School. He nodded his head at Miss Joseph and tried to look interested. He glanced at the board and narrowed his eyes. Trigonometry. On a Friday.

Paperback. Zustand: New. What - you may ask is the point of an English perspective on French sport? In David Owen's own words,"you might just as well seek out a sea otter's take on kabuki". Nevertheless, having lived upwards of ten percent of his life in France, and a lot more than that immersed in French grammar, current affairs and culture,he offers exactly that in this entertaining new book.Drawing on examples from the past six centuries, the author explores sport's philosophical standing inFrance's cultural DNA; its role in the popularisation of the Republic; the birth of the Olympics, the Tour deFrance and the football World Cup; French pre-eminence at real tennis and truffle hunting; and - of course -'la difference' between British and French attitudes to sport.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. Imagine if you had been watching Test cricket, in person, for 66 years. You'd have seen Mankad taking on Trueman and Laker, Compton and Edrich in their golden summer, and Lindwall and Miller showing off their sublime skills. You'd have watched the typhoon Tyson, the stoic Cowdrey, Dexter and May, the genius of Sobers and the great Indian spinners. You'd have witnessed those great classic batsmen, Richards, Gower and Cook scoring centuries. You'd have seen Hadlee, McGrath, Warne and Anderson steaming in. Under her gaze are the famous Englishmen of the 50s, piling on the runs and dominating with spin in perfect home conditions. Here are the controversies of the 60s: the throwing debate, the lethal pitch at Lord's, the banishment of the South African team. Here are the snarling Australians of the 70s, bouncing and bruising their way to the Ashes with Lillee and Thomson unleashed. Here are the wondrous West Indians of the 80s, sweeping all before them. The Queen witnessed it all - and this Christmas, you can relive every moment as she saw it.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Who Only Cricket Know tells the story of the second most controversial tour in English cricket history after Bodyline and has not been revisited since two tour books came out in the immediate aftermath. The cricket is dramatic, the key characters fascinating, and it is awash with incidents on and off the field, many of them involving race and social class. This was the first tour in which MCC travelled by plane (although they returned home on the boat) and the first in they were captained by a professional player - Len Hutton. It was also Hutton's Yorkshire teammate Fred Trueman's debut tour and for the opposition, the Three Ws were in their pomp and a young man called Garfield Sobers made his international bow.David Woodhouse has meticulously researched every aspect of the tour as well as carrying out a number of interviews, retaining the nuances and subtleties of the different levels of the story. He takes us through the lead-up to the tour, the warm-up games and the five Test matches, as well as the recriminations that took place both at Lord's and in the West Indies in the tour's aftermath.…
