'Crazy' Chris Lewis played in 32 Test Matches and 53 One-Day
Internationals for England. At one point he was regarded as one of
the best all-round cricketers the country has ever produced.
However, feeling at odds with the middle-class nature of the sport,
he regularly courted controversy off the field. The tabloids
happily lapped up Lewis' transgressions, such as missing a Test
with sunstroke, arriving late to a match due to oversleeping, as
well as naming England players involved in a match-fixing scandal,
something which led to his early retirement at the age of just 30.
From there he became a loner, before he was arrested in 2008 for
importing cocaine from the Caribbean and sentenced to 13 years in
prison. In Crazy, Lewis recounts his remarkable, redemptive story,
firstly as a child arriving in England from Guyana with his
parents, through to his burgeoning cricketing career, international
recognition, his arrest and subsequent trial, his time in prison,
and how he finally put his life back together.
