Publisher's Synopsis

Graeme Fowler, Lancashire's opening batsman, set off on England's 1984-5 winter tour of India as his country's established opener. A young, intelligent player, he had made an early mark on county cricket after university, and then got into the England team. His future seemed assured, and it was at this point that he began his diary. The tour went well, but there followed a disastrous county season when he found himself dropped eventually even from the Lancashire first team.;This diary provides fascinating insights into the daily life of the professional cricketer and tells the story of how he overcame serious injury and ignominious relegation to become Captain of Lancashire and reinstated in the England side.
