Unlimited Overs: A Season of Midlife Cricket

English

By (author): Roger Morgan-Grenville

Illustrated by: Oliver Preston

As Roger Morgan-Grenville prepares for a new season with the White Hunter Cricket Club, he is starting to feel his age, so he embarks on a secret plan of coaching, yoga and psychology to improve his game. Will he emerge as a sporting demigod, or will his teammates even notice the difference.

This is the humorous and heartwarming story of that cricket season, as the White Hunters go from disaster to triumph. It is a tale of competitiveness, suspense, excellence, hospitality and incompetence, such as the missing fielder found asleep in the woods and the two opening bowlers whose MG Roadster breaks down on the way to the game.

From the Castle Ground at Arundel to a field next to a nudist camp in France, players such as the Tree Hugger, the Gun Runner, and their wicket-keeper, the Human Sieve, share the dream that this might be their day. Above all, it is the uplifting story of friendship among a team of not-very-good players who find enough moments of near brilliance to remind them why they turn up for more, game after game, season after season.

About Roger Morgan-Grenville

Roger Morgan-Grenville and a friend set up the White Hunter Cricket Club in 1986 because they werent good enough for proper cricket but were desperate to go on playing. With a career batting average of 13.46 and a bowling average that is too awful to set down on paper Roger and his teammates have now become a regular summer sight on some of the most feted grounds in the country losing with dignity and sometimes winning with astonished surprise.
