Heh. In my case, it's don't understand at all. Just the same, I've enjoyed fictional treatments of cricket, from Wodehouse to
The Go-Between to Lord Peter Wimsey, but it's entirely over my head. Yorkers, googlies, legs before wickets; it's so much Greek to me. Which is to say, I'm quite interested in gmw's nomination, although I don't want to single that out, either. I've read a few of the nominations and they'd all be wonderful choices.
TL;DR: I'm sitting on my hands for now as I see how things play out and I'm not going to make a nomination of my own!
