Download or read book Wisden on India written by Jonathan Rice and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-07-18 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout its long and distinguished history, Wisden has reported on Indian cricket around the world and commented on its highs and lows. One of the first references to a touring Indian cricket side was in 1889: 'Perhaps the most notable feature of the tour was the wonderfully successful bowing of Mr Pavri, who took 170 wickets at a cost of under 12 runs each'. For a time, India enjoyed a golden age of cricket, largely through Lord Hawke's tours in the 1890s and then buoyed up by the exploits of Kumar Shri Ranjitsinhji who was chosen as a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1897. But there were set-backs to come, such as the team's 1953 'Worst Start in Test Cricket' which saw Trueman scythe through their top order at Headingley to leave the team in disrepair at 0 for 4 wickets after 14 balls. Recent decades have seen formidable players such as Ganguly, Laxman, Sehway, Dravid and Tendulkar lift India's game to great heights, making them a force to be reckoned with. This anthology charts the progress of India through Wisden's pages, using match reports, articles, notes, obituaries and illustrations to bring this extraordinary team - and their equally extraordinary nation - to vivid and delightful life.

Download or read book The Covers Are Off written by Charles Sale and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-07 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the inside story of a 20-year Civil War inside the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) over the future of Lord's Cricket Ground, the home of cricket, a bastion of tradition, and the home of the club itself most of whose 18,000 members have been kept in the dark throughout. On the one side is the MCC establishment, the epitome of a self-perpetuating old boy network but with a global brand name . On the other is a formidable self-made property developer Charles Rifkind who wanted to change the face of Lord's and had the blueprint to do so. As Matthew Engel, former editor of Wisden writes in his Foreword to the book: 'MCC is a most unusual club, trying to balance its three roles: guarding cricket's soul, operating the game's most revered venue and acting for the benefit of its members. It was founded before Britain became a proper democracy and has never quite come to terms with the concept. Sir John Major, who as prime minister had to negotiate the Maastricht Treaty, walked out shaking his head when he got involved in Lord's politics.' It is a saga that saw MCC's great and good taking sides in an increasingly acrimonious conflict played out in furious debates behind the closed Grace Gates. The cast list includes, as well as John Major, household names from cricket such as England Test captains David Gower, Mike Brearley, Mike Gatting and Michael Atherton - along with a cameo role from Wimbledon champion Boris Becker. There are captains of finance and industry and a stellar 'A' list of lawyers, architects, property consultants and developers . Plus the embattled Lord's secretariat and dedicated activists and agitators amongst the MCC membership. An epic struggle between the guardians of 234 years of tradition at Lord's and a new order intent on change is told through documents, minutes and primary sources that delve under the covers of Lord's, MCC and the British Establishment like never before.
