award.
Alex Massie, Wisden Cricketers' Almanack
said:
'A fascinating book, essential for anyone who wishes to
understand cricket's new age . . . They have spoken to dozens and
dozens of the world's leading cricketers and, more than any other
book, got under the skin of how T20 is played, and why . . . The
ultimate takeaway - you realise by the end of this
intelligent, absorbing, detailed survey of where and how we have
reached this moment in the history of the game - is that
soon, perhaps sooner than we think, T20 and Test cricket, already
diverging, will be seen as cousins rather than siblings. Cricket
2.0 will not be with us for long; 3.0 is already in development.
While we wait, Cricket 2.0 is the
Wisden Book of the Year'.
