AwfulReview date: 2009-12-13 Rating: 2 out of 10A stunningly awful book written by a man with no feel for the game. There is nothing between the covers that you haven't heard/read before. Save your money.Cricket loversReview date: 2009-04-28 Rating: 10 out of 10I bought it as a present to a cricket lover and it was very appreciated.Extremely Funny!Review date: 2007-12-21 Rating: 10 out of 10This book is packed with hilarious quotes from the middle and features some of the greatest names in the game. If you think you know all the best sledges, then think again. There are hundreds more in here that will keep you entertained for hours, and may even give you some ideas for the next village game. The perfect present for any armchair fan or player!Never more perfect timing!Review date: 2007-08-03 Rating: 10 out of 10The recent Test series between England and India has really
highlighted sledging's impact on the game. Some of the England players
reportedly ribbed one of the Indians over his weight (and his team's
propensity to get extra shine on the ball using the old jellybean-infused-saliva trick!) and the series became all the more interesting as a result.
Then you have the crowd throwing the sweets onto the outfield to stir
the pot, so even the fans get a go! This book serves a timely reminder that it's never just about the cricket. Enjoy the best sledges and their counters from the game's history, but do watch out for the occasional four letter word - it can get a bit fruity! Richly entertaining.
