Village Cricket - Softcover
To investigate the past and present of village cricket, Tim Heald set off on a tour that took him from Cornwall to Lancashire, from the cradle of cricket in Kent and Sussex to Lord's itself. Tim tells the story of a match in each village he visits as a mix of history and anecdote about the "grass roots." He even returns from retirement to venture on to the field of play.
