"It's about time the Teach Yourself series turned its attention to cricketThey have over 500 titles and, somehow, beekeeping, flower-arranging and tap-dancing were all deemed worthy of earlier attention that cricket. They've roped in Mark Butcher to do the teaching and his excellent analytical and methodical mind has been put to good use. From leg glances to polishing the ball, strategy to lofted drives, Teach Yourself Cricket is a good start for anyone new to the game. -- Wisden Cricketer 20080301
