Synopsis: |
After an eight-year 'golden age', during which they played some breathtaking cricket and won eight major trophies, the 2004 season represented a watershed in Surrey's history. With Adam Hollioake having relinquished the captaincy at the end of the 2003 campaign, and Keith Medlycott having left the club shortly afterwards, it seemed that the county was at the end of an era. That was confirmed when 2004 became the first summer since 1998 to fail to yield a trophy. Having witnessed the vast majority of the club's matches during their 1996-2003 glory years, Trevor Jones is well qualified to describe how Surrey recovered from an unhappy 150th anniversary season in 1995 to enjoy their most successful period since the 1950s. 'Eight Of The Best' is the most comprehensive account of a team's sustained success in English county cricket ever written. The book combines match descriptions, in-depth analysis and an abundance of fascinating facts and statistics with considered opinion, both on Surrey's performances and the significant changes that have taken place in the county game since 1996.'Eight Of The Best' is further enhanced by some of the finest colour photographs of the key players in action. |
