Great Achievers and Characters in Australian Cricket

From the turbulent life of the late Shane Warne to the skill, mentality and character behind Pat Cummins` new-look captaincy, and through the decades to the wit, wisdom and genius of Sir Donald Bradman, Great Achievers and Characters in Australian Cricket examines the career highs and lows of many of the game`s big names through the ages. From the turbulent life of the late Shane Warne to the skill, mentality and character behind Pat Cummins` new-look captaincy, and through the decades to the wit, wisdom and genius of Sir Donald Bradman, Great Achievers and Characters in Australian Cricket examines the career highs and lows of many of the game`s big names. The chapters cover the elegance and style of Ellyse Perry and Neil Harvey; the drive of Ian Chappell, Steve Waugh and Bill Lawry; the dry humour of Lindsay Hassett and the guile of Richie Benaud; the speed and chivalry of Dennis Lillee and the bullyboy tactics of Kerry Packer, who changed the game forever. It also includes fresh insights into the first truly Australian tour of England in 1858, made exclusively by Aboriginal players, and the torch-passing that led to the sensational performance of Indigenous bowler Scott Boland in the 2021-22 Ashes. Bestselling cricket author and historian Roland Perry shines a light on the game`s biggest players and dramas through the ages in Great Achievers and Characters in Australian Cricket.
