Bloomsbury presents The Men Who Raised the Bar by Chris Waters, read by David Thorpe. Few sporting records capture the imagination quite like that of the highest individual score in Test cricket. It is the blue riband record of batting achievement, the ultimate statement of stamina and skill...

For more than four decades, Jim Maxwell has called the cricket for the ABC. Since 1973 he has covered 285 Test matches, including over 50 Ashes Tests, six tours to the West Indies, seven to the subcontinent, and five World Cups. His distinctive voice, dryly understated humour and immense knowledge of the game have been part of the fabric of Australian cricket for generations of listeners. It's not too much to say that Jim has been the sound of our summer. 

A startling and powerful journey to the very core of India's illegal bookmaking industry that exposes the scale of corruption and the match-fixing that now runs rife throughout world cricket. For several years Ed Hawkins made friends with India's illegal bookmakers - men who boast turnover of hundreds of millions of dollars per cricket match - as well as the corruption officers of the International Cricket Council who are trying to shut them down. It's a shady world and rumours abound. But then Hawkins receives a message that changes everything and he decides it is time to expose the truth behind match-fixing.

Nick Compton had it all. A literal golden boy, to many observers it would seem that he was born to be a great in the sporting arena coming as he did from an incredible sporting ancestry. HIs grandfather Sir Denis Compton played cricket for England and football for Arsenal. Honed at an elite English boarding school, with a telegenic profile perfectly suited to the modern media environment, Nick appeared to be blessed with that rare ability to be able to stride out and face down the world's quickest bowlers, to survive and thrive in the danger zone at the hands of the hurtling new ball.

In a rare attempt to understand the Indianness of Indians-among the most intelligent people in the world, but also, to a dispassionate eye, perhaps the most baffling-V. Raghunathan uses the props of game theory and behavioral economics to provide an insight into the difficult conundrum...

Cult hero of the Big Bash League, Brad Hogg is still in his prime almost three decades after he first played cricket. As well as playing for his country, Brad has worked in shearing sheds and on the Fremantle wharf, as a postman, football umpire, tree-lopper and roustabout, even completing a finance degree along the way. Memorable, sad and often hilarious, The Wrong 'Un is the inspirational story of one of the game's most popular players.

Ben Stokes & Stuart Broad two of the greatest cricketers of all time, have come together to create their own podcast 'Round The Wicket' , to give you an unrivalled insight into behind the scenes of England's cricketing escapades home and away.  In Series 2 Stuart has taken a brief hiatus from the podcast as he readies himself for a cricketing summer and so each week Ben Stokes and Freddy will be joined by a celebrity co-host.  Round The Wicket is hosted and produced by Freddy Clode who runs Blind Dog Productions (Rig Biz, Rugby Pass, Rugby Pod, Race To The Top & Wallplug & Grommet) 

From Lord’s to the Fjords is the uproarious tale of cricket in Iceland: how the national press believed a stag party from Oxford were the official England team, how Sky Sports accidentally sent a crew to televise an Icelandic Cricket Cup final that didn’t exist, how the lead singer of Iron Maiden flew a passenger jet into a match under the midnight sun, how Henry Blofeld umpired in a blizzard on top of an ice cap, how the Iceland team was sold to the world’s public and became a viral Twitter sensation (incurring the wrath of Jofra Archer)....

Sports book meets real-life thriller in this sensational autobiography of Zimbabwe’s first-ever black cricketer. Blood, Sweat and Treason tells the story of Olonga's childhood against a backdrop of revolution, independence, and a country that gradually spiraled out of control. He talks of his growing realization that Mugabe headed up a murderous regime, and how he sacrificed his comfortable position as an international sportsman to try to make a difference.

Bloomsbury presents Driven by Vijay Lokapally, read by Taraash Mehrota. Virat Kohli, the undisputed monarch of the cricket world today, is no stranger to loss. His biggest support both on and off the field—his father Prem Kohli—succumbed to a cerebral stroke when Virat was only 18 years old...

'What do you know about the boy?' Dad asked. 'He plays cricket for India,' my uncle replied, as if this mere fact was a clincher. The announcement did not make any noticeable impression on my father and Geeta Didi, because, like me, they did not follow cricket. 'I've seen him play,' announced my...
