'A sequel to The Grade Cricketer? It's like junk time in a second
innings - something you just have to be part of.' Gideon Haigh. Is
life without cricket worth living? It's a question asked and
answered by the Grade Cricketer, as he faces a cricket-free future
after a devious plan goes horribly wrong. Hilarious, ridiculous and
completely true to life to anyone who's ever spent time in a
dressing room, Tea and No Sympathy takes us on a skeweringly funny
sporting misadventure through the world of grade cricket and the
flawed, damaged and occasionally appalling people who play it, from
the creators of the bestselling novel The Grade Cricketer. Praise
for The Grade Cricketer: 'The Grade Cricketer is the finest tribute
to a sport since Nick Hornby's Fever Pitch, and the best cricket
book in yonks. It's belly-laughing funny but it's also a hymn to
the grand and complex game delivered with a narrative pace and
ability I'm afraid most Test players don't have. For anyone who
ever dreamed of excelling at a sport but never quite made it but
still gave it your life, this is the story. A great read!' Tom
Keneally 'The Grade Cricketer has taken us so far inside a district
club dressing room that you feel like a locker. Ligaments could not
be closer to the bone than some of his observations.' Kerry
O'Keeffe 'The Grade Cricketer is strange and, I suspect,
brilliant'. Wisden
