Publisher's Synopsis
In March 1997, Steve and Mark Waugh were ranked as the two best batsmen in the world, according to the Coopers and Lybrand ratings system. THE WAUGH TWINS is the first book to trace the story of crickets' best-known twins - through boyhood backyard battles and early successes and struggles, to their rise to the top at international level.
Kersi Meher-Homji has been writing about the Waugh brothers since 1984, when a chance meeting with their father led to Kersi writing the first story on the twins for an Australian magazine.
This latest contribution with over sixty photographs from the Waugh family album, examines the influence of the boys sport-loving parents and coach Bob Simpson, and features the assessments of their peers, anecdotes and controversies, fascinating trivia and never before published statistics.
