What is a ‘silly mid off’ and a ‘long leg’? How can you be ‘lbw’? And how can a match last for five days and still end up as a draw? In this fully updated edition of the classic guide, Rob Eastaway demystifies the jargon and answers the questions you’ve always wanted to ask. It’s also a timely reminder that for the true cricket lover, the game can be absorbing and exciting even when the ball isn’t being smashed for six.
