Publisher's Synopsis
Who said cricket was a gentleman's game? Sledging is the art of verbally intimidating abatsman so that he loses his concentration and gets himself out. It is also known as the art of initiating mental disintegration. This handbook is an absolutely hilarious romp through the history of the cricketing insult, from WG Grace to Shane Warne and his contemporaries. First published in 2006, and now in its fourth edition, The Sledger's Handbook has been revised and updated with all-new material.
