Dean Jones' Cricket Tips Reviews

'An easy-to-read, interesting, and thought-provoking glance at how some of cricket's biggest names went about getting to be as good as they were.'
-Daily Examiner


'A collection of insights from a galaxy of latter-day stars, all of whom gave generously, amounting to the sort of wisdom and lore players once became steeped in while sitting around with revered senior teammates after stumps.'
-Greg Baum, The Age


'An important addition to any cricketer's store of how-to books ... Jones really does reveal himself as a very good teacher.'
-Inside Sport


'Short and succinct, with wonderful illustrations from journalist John Spooner, it pens serious thoughts in a comic book appearance, far from a monotonous monologue that most coaching manuals tend to resemble.'
-The Asian Age


'Bright and accessible ... a lively and sometimes diverting read ... with engaging illustrations.'
-The Cricketer
