Cricket as I See it
Author(s): Allan Border
Allan Border is an elder statesman of Australian cricket. In the twenty years since he retired as captain he's been one of the game's closest and most astute observers. His views on cricket - based on his experiences as a player, a captain, a selector and a commentator - are fascinating, forthright and informed by more than three decades of involvement at the game's highest level. In this book he gives us his wisdom and opinions on the game he loves - from epic Tests, the rising power of India and the Twenty20 revolution, through to his thoughts on captaincy and the essential arts of batting, bowling and sledging. With cricket, Allan calls it as he sees it...
