Cricket has been played at Sydney University for more than 150 years: the first recorded match was played in 1854. It is the oldest surviving cricket club in New South Wales, and the oldest in Australia other than the Melbourne Cricket Club. This book offers a series of sketches of University cricketers through which a picture of the club emerges over time.

'Books about sport vary widely in their quality. This one is more cerebral than most and the depth of analysis in respect of the chosen subjects is a pleasing aspect of the publication. The book is an invaluable work for the Sydney University Cricket Club but it's appeal is wider than that.'
