Shortlisted for the 2017 Cross Sports Autobiography of the Year
'Full of illuminating anecdotes, piercing insights and unsparing
self-analysis from the former England batsman' The Cricketer
Jonathan Trott was England's rock during one of the most successful
periods in the team's history - he scored a century on debut to
clinch the Ashes in 2009, and cemented his position as their
pivotal batsman up to and beyond the team's ascendancy to the
number 1 ranked test team in 2011. Yet shortly after reaching those
heights, he started to crumble, and famously left the 2012-13 Ashes
tour of Australia suffering from a stress related illness. His
story is the story of Team England - it encompasses the life-cycle
of a team that started out united by ambition, went on to achieve
some of the greatest days in the team's history but then, bodies
and minds broken, fell apart amid acrimony. Having seen all of this
from the inside, Jonathan's autobiography takes readers to the
heart of the England dressing room, and to the heart of what it is
to be a professional sportsman. Not only does it provide a unique
perspective on a remarkably successful period in English cricket
and its subsequent reversal, it also offers a fascinating insight
into the rewards and risks faced as a sportsman carrying the hope
and expectation of a team and a nation. And it's a salutary tale of
the dangers pressure can bring in any walk of life, and the perils
of piling unrealistic expecations on yourself.
