Highly illustrated gift book charting the Irish cricket teams
unbelievable World Cup adventure with exclusive behind the scenes
photographs. "Green Wickets" charts Ireland's journey from the last
gasp draw with Zimbabwe, the epic win over Pakistan and the full
escapades of the Blarney Army. The team's progress to the Super
Eight meant frantic calls home to employer's to ask for another
month's leave - and this is the team members, not the fans. Denis
O'Brien and his Digicel organization helped the team arrange
financing and accommodation and the last match against Bangladesh
saw Ireland enter the top flight of future one day competition. Add
in the curious Bob Woolmer affair and the book makes for a
colourful and intriguing story of a remarkable few weeks in Irish
and cricket sporting history that will never be forgotten. In Green
Wicket, Ed has sourced behind the scenes images from the team
members and has extensive interview notes from all the
protagonists. The book also features chapters on the islands and
countries Ireland visited for their matches.
