WISDEN BOOK OF THE YEAR





Winner of The Telegraph Sports Book Awards Cricket Book of the Year





Cricket 2.0 is the multi award-winning story of how an old, traditional game was revolutionised by a new format: Twenty20 cricket.





Using exclusive interviews with over 80 leading players and coaches including Jos Buttler, Ricky Ponting, Kieron Pollard, Eoin Morgan, Brendon McCullum and Rashid Khan Tim Wigmore and Freddie Wilde chronicle this revolution with insight, forensic analysis and story-telling verve. In the process, they reveal how cricket has been transformed, both on and off the field.





Told with vivid clarity and insight, this is the extraordinary and previously misunderstood story of Twenty20, how it is reshaping the sport and what the future of cricket will look like.





Readers will never watch a T20 game in quite the same way again. For people that love cricket its really important to read it, said Miles Jupp. I found it extraordinary.
