Once A Pear... is the enthralling cricketing story of Daryl
Mitchell - the ultimate 'one-club man'. Daryl graduated from the
village game to become the first Worcestershire captain born in the
county since 1925. He turned down offers from other, more famous
counties to play for the club for 17 years in a turbulent career
that saw five promotions, five relegations and short-form triumphs
in the Pro40 competition and the Twenty20 Blast. A club legend, 38
first-class county hundreds put him sixth in the all-time list of
Worcestershire centurions, while his 295 catches place him eighth
in the fielding records. Four years as chairman of the Professional
Cricketers' Association speaks volumes for the esteem he is held in
by fellow professionals. In Once A Pear... Daryl reveals what it
takes to be a successful county cricketer, and the impact on a
player's mental health, while exploring how the game has changed in
the last 20 years. This is the story of a true cricket man.
