Having explored Indian cricket history in his previous books, prolific sports author Gulu Ezekiel now delves into a counter-factual history of Indian cricket from its roots in the 19th century to the present day. In this fascinating study, he asks: What if the Parsees had been thwarted in their pioneering cricket days in the mid-1800s? What if the team selection and weather had been different in Australia in 1947-48? What if Tiger Pataudi had not lost an eye in a road accident? What if the 1983 Prudential Cup final had turned out differently? These and other intriguing scenarios are explored in-depth in this unique first-of-its-kind cricket book
