FORMER England fast bowler Agnew gives an entertainingly revealing behind-the-scenes account of his life as a journalist and the BBC cricket correspondent. Here are the fascinating stories behind what made cricket headlines. The paperback new edition is updated from the 1997 original to include more recent issues such as the Hanse Cronje bribery scandal. Serious opinion about events is mixed well with amusing tales. Some of the humour is a bit schoolboyish, the jolly japes of the Test Match Special 'gang', but the book has depth too and is well worth a summer read.
