Book excerpt: This is a hilarious and irreverent account of a sport that originated in 16th century England and was then gradually fed to the British Empire whose members regularly outplay the old country. The author's probing research has uncovered hitherto most secret scandals amongst the governing bodies of the game and of the complex lives of some of the great heroes of the past and present day. With his outrageous and contagious sense of humour the author has written a book which explains why cricket is a national institution.
