Sinopsis

Is international cricket facing its own &lsquo,global warming&rsquo, moment, a crisis that&rsquo,s attacking its very core?That&rsquo,s the question posed by Glenn Turner and co-author Lynn McConnell in this insightful insider&rsquo,s account.In the rush to commercialise and expand the game, the authors suggest, it&rsquo,s been turned into a &lsquo,product&rsquo,, and burdened by a class of amateur administrators pulling it in a direction that&rsquo,s increasingly at odds with the needs of the game &mdash, including the first-class game on which the whole edifice rests.This book shows how these problems are playing out in New Zealand cricket, but those in other cricketing nations will see a lot in common with their own experience of the game.A probing mix of anecdotes, analysis and forthright criticism of the game and its administration from one of cricket&rsquo,s most successful and widely experienced players.About the AuthorsGlenn Turner played 41 Tests, 41 ODIs, 455 first-class games and 195 one-day matches in a career spanning 19 years and captained NZ, Worcestershire, Otago and Northern Districts.
