Produktbeschreibung
Bigger, buffer, and even more insecure than before, The Grade Cricketer is back. After wasting several years becoming a worldwide sports comedy phenomenon, The Grade Cricketer returns with another sharp, hilarious, and often risqué critique of the game. Packed with side-splitting humor, Alphas, Champs and Chop Kings brilliantly skewers sporting masculinity and cricket culture, channeling the irreverent energy of Sam Perry and Ian Higgins' hit podcast, TV, radio, and live shows. A hallowed, suspicious-smelling manual, this book is an induction into the world of grade cricket, handed down through generations of players who weren't quite good enough to turn pro. Outrageous, ridiculous, and painfully true, it's the handbook you should never give to an aspiring young cricketer. Praise for The Grade Cricketer: "The Grade Cricketer nails it for anyone who's ever donned a pair of whites." - Merv Hughes "The finest tribute to a sport since Nick Hornby's Fever Pitch." - Tom Keneally "Takes us so far inside a district club dressing room that you feel like a locker." - Kerry O'Keeffe "Strange and, I suspect, brilliant." - Wisden
Autorenporträt
As wide-eyed juniors, Sam Perry and Ian Higgins both dreamed of playing cricket for Australia. But those dreams didn't survive the brutal, dog-eat-dog world of Australian grade cricket, where ambition is crushed as quickly as it's born. Out of this heartbreak came The Grade Cricketer--a desperate, delusional everyman who embodies the struggles of thousands of middling amateur athletes. What began as a form of catharsis has become a global satire on the culture of cricket, resonating with players and fans alike. Now boasting more than one million followers, @thegradecricketer is a cult comedy phenomenon, offering sharp, self-aware commentary on the sport's highs, lows, and absurdities.
