The Worst of Cricket is a warts-and-all celebration of the truth that malice and misfortune play a crucial role in the world's cruellest game. So pad up and take your guard against the very worst elements of cricket, from the worst imaginable gamesmanship and brawling to the worst injuries, the worst umpiring decisions and missed catches.

We've been swallowing the myth for years; that cricket is a gentlemanly pursuit, where bad luck is something to be borne stoically, and bad behavior is poor form that will get you drummed out of the club. This is plainly nonsense. This book is a warts-and-all celebration of that truth with twelve chapters covers a different worst and giving eleven worst examples from first-class cricket.
