Synopsis
The fascinating story of cricket’s world governing body, the International Cricket Council (ICC), and how it grew into a multi-billion-dollar business.
From cricket journalist, historian and academic Rod Lyall.
This meticulously researched and authoritative history reveals how:
- Privileged aristocrats and mining magnates turned cricket into a ‘civilising’ force of empire, promoting the politics and prejudices of their class
- Cricket’s world governing body evolved – from its early days in St John’s Wood, London as the Imperial Cricket Conference into the International Cricket Council, a multi-billion-dollar sporting business, based in Dubai and increasingly dominated by a financially and politically ambitious Indian elite
- The ICC failed to deal effectively with such challenges as the Bodyline controversy, apartheid in South Africa and Kerry Packer’s commercialisation of the game
- Media rights deals and global events sponsorship have created new problems: match-fixing, administrative corruption and the threat from franchise leagues
This is the first full account of the ICC’s origins and its roots in imperialist ideology, charting its rise from a talking-shop into a multi-billion-dollar global business driven by massive worldwide TV audiences.

À propos de l'auteur
A cultural historian and retired academic, Australian-born Rod Lyall has been writing about cricket, especially for the ICC’s Associate members, since 2005, producing hundreds of online articles, ranging from match reports to analysis of the politics of the game at national and international level. Between 2012 and 2016 he served on the board of the KNCB, the governing body of Dutch cricket, for the first two and a half years as its vice-chairman.

hardcover. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
