THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER & TELEGRAPH BOOKS OF THE YEAR While
we wait for cricket to return to our screens and stadiums, get to
know England's most-loved batsman, Alastair Cook _________________
'He is England's greatest ever batsman . . . a hugely enjoyable
book' Daily Mail, SPORTS BOOKS OF THE YEAR _________________ Watch.
The. Ball. It's just you. Standing at the crease. Waiting. The
bowler is running. His arm swinging. The ball - 155 grams of cork,
string and leather - is hurled at you. At 90 mph it travels 22
yards in under half a second. You can barely see it and you've got
to be swinging your bat before it's halfway towards you. Because
you are in its path . . . Alastair Cook, one of England's most
decorated players and highest test run scorer, knows what it is
like to be your best under pressure. Yet at 33 he called time on
his England career. Come with him as he relives the fraught hours
on the pitch, the desperate lows and astonishing highs, the
paralysing anxiety that can send the best back home and the
extraordinary battle of wills with yourself, the opposing players
and even those supposedly on your own side. This is cricket as
you've never seen it. The view from the inside . . . LONGLISTED FOR

the game' Guardian 'Bracingly honest' Times
