The trundlers : the military medium-paced story of cricket's most invaluable breed
Pearson, Harry, 1961-2014
Books
Some men are born medium-paced, some achieve medium-pace others have medium-pace thrust upon them. Bowlers who take wickets not with pace or spin, but - at speeds between 65 and 85mph - by nagging accuracy are the most common in cricket. So far, however, nobody has paid them any attention. Examining the history of medium-pace bowling, this book explains how swing actually works, and tells the story of some of the great and not-so-great dobbers who 'do a bit off the seam'.
