Sir Richard Hadlee, one of cricket's all-time greats. His opponents have learned the hard way that while he's on the field, they have a problem. But it's not only his ability with the bat and ball that makes him a feared and highly respected competitor; he is also one of the game's great thinkers. This is Hadlee's fourth book and it reflects more of the man himself; his feelings, his opinions and his indomitable spirit for the game. Although sometimes controversial he is always worth listening too. If something needs to be said, particularly with regard to the current trends in international cricket, Hadlee speaks with passion - just like he plays the game. In 'Hadlee Hits Out', Hadlee talks about the 1983 Cricket World Cup, where legendary players like Viv Richards, David Gower, Kapil Dev, Imran Khan and Ian Botham graced the pitch, producing some unforgettable performances. He talks about the 'Snedden Catch' and the decision by Australian captain Greg Chappell to instruct his brother Trevor to bowl an underarm delivery, perhaps the most controversial incident in international cricket history.
