Reader Reviews:
An excellent insight into the mind of the modern sportsman (5/5 people found this helpful)
This work is a refreshing deviation from a sports book market awash with dull ghostwritten biographies. Reading Wagh's account of the 2008 domestic season leaves you with a unique insight into the batsmen's mindset and the methods both mental & physical that are employed to constantly better oneself. This book refuses to stampede down the route of being controversial just to sell copies, in fact Wagh's respect for his colleagues capabilities as cricketers, coaches and teammates and his love of just simply playing is refreshingly different from a lot of other sports books I have read. The authors thoughts on how overcome doubt in your ability and the importance of the team ethic are more insightful than what is contained in the mountain of selfhelp and business analysis books out there. Deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as similiar works by Jonathan Agnew, Ed Smith & Simon Hughes.
