Sticky Dogs and Stardust Volume 2

English

By (author): Scott Oliver


Unlike other sports, cricket - and especially the club cricket of England and the British Isles - allows
recreational players to rub shoulders with international stars and even superstars in a fully competitive
context, providing them with some of the most cherished memories of their lives.
As in the first book, Scott Oliver has assembled two stellar XIs including legendary figures such as Muttiah
Muralitharan, Dennis Lillee, Lance Gibbs, Abdul Qadir, Allan Border, Learie Constantine, Javed Miandad
and many more, cult heroes such as Jesse Ryder, and even the club cricket story of one of England's earliest
greats, SF Barnes.
These magical stories are unique to cricket. And yet no one has collected them in one place. Until now.
The first volume of Sticky Dogs and Stardust was named the Wisden Book of the Year in 2024, also earning
Oliver the title of JM Kilburn Cricket Writer of the Year and nominations for the Cricket Society and MCC
Book of the Year 2024, and the Sports Book Awards 2024. See more

About Scott Oliver


Scott Oliver turned to freelance features writing in 2012 after completing an arduous PhD
on Peronist Argentina - mainly about sport, although he has written on culture and politics for the Guardian,
the New European, New Statesman, VICE and others. A regular contributor of football longforms to The
Blizzard, Mundial and The Ringer, cricket is nevertheless his first love. He has written hundreds of pieces on
a multitude of topics for ESPNcricinfo, Cricbuzz, the Cricketer and Wisden Cricket Monthly, for whom he has
been club cricket correspondent since its 2017 re-launch, compiling the much-loved "Club Cricket Hall of
Fame" series. This is his second book, a follow-up to last year's Sticky Dogs and Stardust.
