This is the third title by Gideon Haigh on cricket writings to follow his previous two successful publications.
Haigh turns his thoughts to the modern game in the 21st century. As he looks at Test level cricket, dominated now by his countrymen, he includes pieces on some of the great Australian cricketers of recent times, such as McGrath, Waugh, Ponting and Langer.
The thrills of Twenty20 cricket are reflected upon as is the shift of power in the game's finances to the subcontinent, so evident in the new Indian Premier League.
