From one of India's finest writers, thinkers and commentators, a memoir of a love affair with cricket.

As a fan, player, writer, scholar, controversialist and administrator, Ram Guha has spent a life with cricket.

In this book, Guha offers both a brilliantly charming memoir and a charter of the life of cricket in India.

He traces the game across every level at which it is played: school, college, club, state and country. He offers vivid portraits of local heroes, provincial icons and international stars.

Following the narrative of his life intertwined and in love with the sport, Guha captures the magic of bat and ball that has ensnared billions.

This autobiography is not just a collection of personal memoirs, but a top-notch literary work that delves into the social aspects of sports, particularly cricket, in an Asian context. It's a biography that transcends the personal to become a history of the game, highlighting the figures that have shaped it.

For fans of Anita Anand (Sophia), Kai Bird (The Outlier), Michael Henderson (That Will Be England Gone), Jon Hotten (Bat, Ball and Field), and Derek Pringle (Pushing the Boundaries).
