Hoggy by Matthew Hoggard

The quintessential barking-mad Yorkshire cricketer, 'Hoggy's' record-breaking bowling exploits for England allied to his humorous, uniquely oddball yet hugely endearing attitude to sport and life makes this essential reading for all lovers of the game. More than just a line-and-length cricketer's biography, Hoggy offers an entertaining insight into the weird and wonderful world of one of cricket's true characters. From the pub to the wicket and everywhere in-between, the dogged nightwatchman and wicket-taker looks beyond the runs and wickets to reveal what cricketers really get up to on tour and in the dressing room …

Hoggard on Hoggard: 'I’m from YorkshireI say what I like and I like what I bloody well say. I'm not one for beating around the bush, I am not politically correct…’

‘An engaging memoir.’ The Times

‘A wonderful, honest and characteristically unhinged autobiography.’ Wisden Cricketer
