Publisher's Synopsis

THIS BUMPER COLLECTION OF THE FUNNIEST ANECDOTES, JOKES AND STORIES FROM CRICKET'S BEST-LOVED PERSONALITIES PROVES THAT CRICKET IS STILL A FUNNY GAME - EVEN WHEN RAIN STOPS PLAY! With a new introduction by Jonathan Agnew.

In this updated and expanded edition of the popular THE WIT OF CRICKET you can read many more hilarious anecdotes about legendary cricketers such as Richie Benaud, Ian Botham, Donald Bradman, Geoff Boycott, Andrew Flintoff, Joe Root and Ben Stokes.

There also dozens of humorous gaffes and giggles from the commentary box by Jonathan Agnew, Henry Blofeld, Christopher Martin-Jenkins, Dan Norcross and others - not to mention sledging, short-sighted umpires, streakers, and the phantom sock snipper in the England dressing-room!
