Book excerpt: EVERY TEST AND ONE-DAY PLAYER EVER! Unbeknown to most cricket fans, a significant milestone in the game has just been passed. Towards the end of 2006, the number of cricketers to have played in a Test match or a full One Day International reached 3,000. It is therefore fitting that there is finally a single publication that contains a comprehensive record of every elite cricketer to have played the game since Australia and England did battle at the MCG in that historic first Test in 1877. This type of book has been asked for countless times over the years; a single, easily understood publication that contains the name of every cricketer to have played the game at the highest level. Want to know how many wickets W.G Grace took in his Test career or who was the only bowler to take two hat-tricks in the same Test? — The answers are all here in The Encyclopedia of International Cricketers, the first book to provide a comprehensive record of every cricketer who has played in a Test or ODI. For the statistically minded The Encyclopedia of International Cricketers has a comprehensive table for each player that includes date of birth, cap number, career span, aggregates, averages and ‘best figures’ for all Tests and ODI’s. For those who love the rich history of the game there are vibrant profiles for every player that looks into their lives inside, and occasionally beyond, the boundary rope.

Download or read book Beyond a Boundary written by Cyril Lionel Robert James and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In C. L. R. James's classic Beyond a Boundary, the sport is cricket and the scene is the colonial West Indies. Always eloquent and provocative, James--the "black Plato," (as coined by the London Times)--shows us how, in the rituals of performance and conflict on the field, we are watching not just prowess but politics and psychology at play. Part memoir of a boyhood in a black colony (by one of the founding fathers of African nationalism), part passionate celebration of an unusual and unexpected game, Beyond a Boundary raises, in a warm and witty voice, serious questions about race, class, politics, and the facts of colonial oppression. Originally published in England in 1963 and in the United States twenty years later (Pantheon, 1983), this second American edition brings back into print this prophetic statement on race and sport in society.
