A book about Twenty-20 cricket

 



Mint condition. PB. 240pp. $18 including postage anywhere in Australia.

The rise of the Twenty20 cricket tournament always promised change, and in this invaluable behind-the-scenes view of this groundbreaking new event, former Australian Cricket Team coach John Buchanan traces the shift from the One Day International format through to the Twenty20 World Cup and announcement of the Indian Premiere League. 

It explains in detail the forces at work behind the format shift and explores the cause of the loss of support for the ODI format and country versus country cricket. 

It also charts the rise of the Indian power brokers and demonstrates how they have come to be in such a dominant position in the world of cricket.
