My Early Life by Graeme Hick

The personal story of the young batsman, whose record stands comparison with the legendary Sir Donald Bradman. In April 1991, at the age of only 25, Graeme Hick will at last qualify to play for England. In this book, Hick tells of his early years in Zimbabwe, where he scored his first century at the age of six and played for his country while still at school. He talks about why he chose to qualify for England rather than to continue to play for Zimbabwe. He charts the success he has enjoyed since joining Worcestershire: the feat of becoming the second batsman since World War II to score a thousand runs in May; of the day when he scored 405 runs not out in a county game - the highest individual score in England this century. With everyone expecting Graeme Hick to take the Test scene by storm in 1991 and to dominate it for the next decade, he discusses the pressures of expectation.
