About this ebook
The basis of this book is all about a few members of a cricket team and is not in itself about the game. The author seeks to lightly inform newcomers to the sport of causes and consequences of the game in general, in order to expand the understanding of the characters.
Followers of cricket I hope will enjoy the humour.
The tale would never have been told without this cricket match.
So some time in the 1960’s in England, a local cricket team and their followers undertake their last match of the season. This tale charts the interweaving of the many diverse life styles and occupations of the team members who up to have been unaware of how their lives have been or will be influenced negatively by a man they have never met - Sir Druson Bamford. Druson the hugely rich autocratic Lord of the Manor plans to dominate the worlds mineral industry, by whatever means, to ensure his lineage continues to flourish. Governments and mere morals are no barrier to his activities but the result of the team members at last understanding their plight results in dark actions.
