Cricket Kings

Cover image for 'Cricket Kings' by William McInnes Cricket Kings is a book about much more than cricket, although it is saturated with devoted love of the game. Set in Melbourne’s western suburbs, this novel takes on big themes and dreams in an unassuming way and makes a darn good yarn out of them.
