«This book is for the people that make cricket both possible and the most magical game on earth, and yes, very possibly better than sex.»
Daniel Norcross
«Ever self-deprecating, R M-G has nailed his whimsical colours to the mast with his latest volume on the trials of the legendary White Hunters CC. His turn of phrase is without parallel. Who else would or could come up with the line, "Clinging on to my innings like a sloth to the underside of a Cecopria tree"?»
David Gower
«Where Roger strikes a real and often hilarious chord is his take on what you'd call the theatricals of cricket, the anecdotes and vignettes which make it such an enjoyable and perplexing game... But for those 750,000 dedicated amateurs that play cricket, and for the many more who used to play the game but can no longer, and yet still listen avidly to Test Match Special in the uncertain hours to watch the Ashes in Australia, this is a book that bears affectionate witness to a noble game that continues to bewitch. After all, who would prefer to score a goal for England rather than hold his bat aloft after scoring a century at Lord's?»
Paul de Zulueta, The Guards Magazine
«Unlimited Overs is a wryly amusing tale of 'friendship, dynasty, defiance and hope...'»
RE, Country Life
