Publisher's Summary

Cricket is said to be a funny game and now you can hear why with another brilliant collection of humorous stories, jokes, and anecdotes from the world of cricket as told by five of the game's all-time great personalities: Richie Benaud, Dickie Bird, Henry Blofeld, Brian Johnston, and Fred Trueman.

Recorded live in theatres and in the studio, here are dozens of hilarious anecdotes about England players such as Denis Compton, Len Hutton, Mike Brearley, and Ian Botham, not to mention broadcasting gaffes, sledging, short-sighted umpires, and the first male streaker at Lord's!

It’s just highlights from the first one.

This is literally just a snippet of the first book - I absolutely loved and utterly enjoyed the first book, and whilst these are literally from the first book, and well worth hearing again, you may as well save your credit and just listen to the first one again.
