Cricket’s Fifty Most Important Moments charts the sport’s long, colourful and sometimes controversial history, delving into its most significant moments on and off the cricket field.

Tracing the sport’s development from its early days in the 18th century through to the modern era, the book journeys through more than 275 years of intriguing events. It explores how players, teams and other remarkable individuals have shaped the game. It also assesses the famous matches, tactical changes, new laws and other innovations that have punctuated cricket from its infancy to the present day.

From the early teams based in sleepy English villages through to international cricket and the modern franchise game played for a global television audience; from the start of first-class cricket and the birth of the Ashes and Test cricket to World Cups and the phenomenon of T20 cricket, this book showcases the key moments, matches and controversies that have come to define the sport.

Reviews for Cricket's Fifty Most Important Moments

"""Tim's fifty encompasses the very earliest days of the game from the 1700s and works its way through to the present day... [all are] vastly different and interesting chapters which show the vast length and breadth of the game of cricket... Nicely written and well researched."" -- Andrew Roberts * Cricket Statistics *"
