‘Should be read by every person worried about the future of English cricket’
Sunday Times
In this fully updated paperback edition of his bestselling book that shocked English cricket, David Lloyd tells the full story about his time in charge of a struggling team, his clashes with authority and the difficult characters he has managed in his career.
Writing from a position of intimate knowledge as coach to the England team for three years, Lloyd offers his often outspoken views on why English cricket is currently at its lowest ebb.
His was not a smooth or straightforward assignment. He clashed repeatedly with the counties in his efforts to change the structure of the game, he was hounded by the press, and he was severely reprimanded more than once by the England Cricket Board over his passionate outbursts in defence of his team.
Accounts of these political battles alongside his remarkable frankness about key personnel – Phil Tufnell, Andy Caddick, Nasser Hussain and Graham Thrope to name a few – provide a fascinating and at times damning picture of the strengths and weaknesses of cricket in this country.
Now as he contemplates a future in television commentary, all the stories that could never be told while he was in the England job are revealed once and for all.
