The way Martin has been rattling on about this one over the last few days you would be forgiven for thinking he believes it is the best book he has ever read
In this feature Martin tells the unusual story of Paul Gibb, a wicketkeeper batsman for England, Essex and Yorkshire who later became a First Class umpire
She wrote ‘the first book on First Class cricket not written by a man’ back in 1953, but few remember Margaret Hughes today – in this post Martin reminds us of her contribution to cricket literature
This year’s has been a strange old county cricket season, so now seems an appropriate time to look at a book about 2019, the sort of summer that we will hopefully enjoy once more in 2021
