Description

Sledging is the art of verbally intimidating a batsman so that he loses concentration and gets himself out. It is also known as the art of initiating mental disintegration. The fielding side may use a variety of tactics to do this, including the witty welcome, the chirp or behind-the-back shout, the unexpected question, observation, sarcastic dig or rant about the batsman’s technique, and the send off, where the humiliated batsman is sent back to the pavilion with a volley of abuse ringing in his ears.

If you thought cricket was a game for gentlemen then think again. This book lists the best and worst insults from some of the world's finest players and underhand sledgers. From WG Grace to Shane Warne, from Ian Botham to Sachin Tendulkar, if you're a fan of general abuse, this book is a must-have.
