Summary

From laughs and legends to sledges and stuff-ups, this is the cricket season gift. From a horse that took a triple hat-trick, to captains who tossed over the telephone, and an umpire who went missing in mid-over for a wee, Favourite Cricket Yarns is a compelling smorgasboard of tall and mostly true stories, from Australian cricket's master storyteller Ken Piesse. Gaffes, sledges, bloopers and quips just in time from the man who is a writer and commentator and an author of more than 40 books on cricket
