Ahead of the Eight Ball

By: Dave and Mick Tickner
  • Summary

  • Cricket is the best sport and has the best cliches. In Ahead of the Eight Ball, failed sports journalist Dave Tickner and Dave’s brother Mick dissect every single one of those clichés, from behind the eight ball to tracer bullets via heavy balls and big bats, in painstaking detail whether you like it or not.
