The cricketing life of a very-nearly-ran.
Tom Hicks went from village green to first-class captain, rubbing shoulders with cricketing royalty while experiencing highs, lows and hilarity.
If you've ever wondered what it's like to face 90mph bowling, to have lunch with Mike Gatting or to infiltrate an England post-match party, Hicks is your man.
