Cricket Odyssey: A fascinating journey... with 75 legends of all time - Paperback
by Rajgopal Nidamboor Phd (Author)
Cricket Odyssey is a skilfully executed, lovingly constructed, book: a literary celebration of over a century-and-a-half of cricket. It has narrative and character study blended in a dexterously refined, yet readable form. It not only manages to pervade the essential of the essentials of some of cricket's greatest players - from Dr W G Grace to Steve Waugh; from Sir Don Bradman, Sachin Tendulkar to Rahul Dravid; from Sir Learie Constantine and Sir Gary Sobers to Jacques Kallis; from Ray Lindwall to Wasim Akram; and, from Clarrie Grimmett to Anil Kumble and Muttiah Muralitharan - but, it also brings to life a classy and effulgent cricketing collage. More than a lively, encapsulated grandeur of individual brilliance, or cricketing chemistry, of each player epitomised in its canvas, Cricket Odyssey explores not only the many-resplendent delights of cricket, but it also delineates a deftly woven work of art - of the game's scientific foundation, art and grammar, and its players' phenomenal exploits, acts of courage, grandeur, and 'shortfall.' A journey through nostalgia, and a living monument to a living philosophy, it is, in sum, a 'must-read' and 'must-keep' book for all avid cricket fans across the globe.
