It is a taleof competitiveness, suspense, excellence, hospitality and incompetence, such asthe missing fielder found asleep in the woods and the two opening bowlers whoseMG Roadster breaks down on the way to the game. From the Castle Ground at Arundel to a field next to anudist camp in France, players such as the Tree Hugger, the Gun Runner, andtheir wicket-keeper, the Human Sieve, share the dream that this might be theirday. Above all, it is the uplifting story of friendship among a team ofnot-very-good players who find enough moments of near brilliance to remind themwhy they love the game of cricket.
