Publisher's Summary

A wonderful collection of hilarious cricket stories and anecdotes from the one and only 'Tuffers'. Phil Tufnell, aka 'Tuffers', is the much-loved English cricketer who has now become one of the country's favourite broadcasters. Not cast from the same mould as other players of his generation, Tufnell has become a cult figure for his unorthodox approach to the game ... and to life in general.

Tuffers' Cricket Tales is a deliciously eccentric collection of the great man's favourite cricket stories that will amuse and inform in equal measure. Tufnell's unmistakeably distinctive voice, as heard to such good effect on Test Match Special, steers fans through dozens and dozens of terrifically entertaining and insightful anecdotes, garnered from his 25-year playing and broadcasting career. Tuffers' Cricket Tales introduces a cast of genuinely colourful characters found in dressing-rooms and commentary boxes from around the world, and in the process, offers a uniquely warm and quirky homage to the sport.

Expected better.

I bought this after hearing Tuffers tell a story about falling out of a wheely bin as the Aussies arrived at Lord's during a test. I was expecting a book of humourous anecdotes and when Tufnell sticks to his brief, it can be occasionally entertaining. Trouble is,when he gets into an account of his involvement with reality TV it can get quite self-indulgent and tedious. Same goes for the rants he goes on towards the end.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
