Ashes 2023: A Cricket Classic by Gideon Haigh

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges, with front cover right tail corner now protected with book tape. Interior and binding are still excellent.

High hopes were held for the Ashes of 2023. They were exceeded in an instant classic of five Tests between a bold England and a battling Australia, finally shared two-all.

Ashes 2023 captures all the drama and skill, as well as the controversy over a stumping at Lord's that followed in the tradition of Bodyline as a clash of cultures and of stereotypes.

With a foot in both camps, Gideon Haigh wrote for The Australian in Australia and The Times in the UK. This book mixes his popular match reports with new material to create a priceless memento of an unforgettable series.
