Synopsis

Phil Tufnell, cricket legend and national treasure, has populated his very own Cricket Hall of Fame with a deliciously eclectic collection of cricket legends and offbeat characters, with joyful results.

From boyhood heroes, to legendary team-mates, to fearsome opponents, to idiosyncratic umpires and broadcasters, Tuffers has gathered together the most enchanting cast of cricketing figures every assembled.

And it wouldn't be a Tuffers tome if there weren't a number of captivating appearances from some unexpected quarters, including some genuinely off-the-wall, non-cricketing inductees to keep life interesting in this very personal Hall of Fame.

By turns eccentric and warm-hearted, Tuffers' Cricket Hall of Fame is a joy for all cricket fans.

Goodreads review by Mark on April 28, 2024

A book to pick up on a wet or a cold day, when you have nothing much to do. Enjoyable in that it is a different approach to picking your favourite cricketers, but not a book to take at all seriously.......more

Goodreads review by Andrew on September 22, 2017

If you like cricket (I do) you will get fun out of this. Easy to read and a few new stories, although a lot of them are a re-telling. The proofreading failed a few times but that's not the author's fault and didn't detract from the overall experience.......more
