Bat, Bowl and Beyond
Foreword by Dr Jane Powell, President of Yorkshire County Cricket Club
Cricket can feel complex, traditional and full of unspoken rules, yet it remains one of the most rewarding games to play and watch. Bat, Bowl and Beyond is a clear and engaging guide for anyone who loves cricket, whether you are learning to play for the first time, returning to the game, already an experienced player or cheering from the boundary.
Inside you will find simple explanations of the basics, from picking up a bat and choosing your stance to understanding bowling actions, fielding positions and how a match unfolds. The book also covers the full Laws of Cricket, rare modes of dismissal, scorecards, captaincy decisions, player roles and the small but important details that make cricket unique, including common superstitions, match routines and long-standing traditions. There is also a concise journey through the history of the sport, showing how cricket developed into the game we know today.
Written with clarity and accuracy, this is the perfect guide for beginners, families, seasoned players, spectators and anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of the game.
Cricket has a long story. This book helps you enjoy every part of it.

S. A. Carmody (Sarah) grew up in Rainhill, Merseyside, before moving to Leeds, UK, where she now lives with her family and a lively pack of dogs. A lifelong storyteller and observer of human nature, she studied Journalism as a mature student to legitimise her extreme nosiness, later running hyper-local news sites before moving into politics, communications, and campaigning. Passionate about both fiction and social commentary, she finally committed to finishing the many manuscripts she had started. Her published works include Why Gen X Had It All: Growing Up in Britain, The Little Book of First-World Problems, Rule Britannia & Beyond: Britain in the 90s, and modernised editions of Orwell’s The Road to Wigan Pier and Hocking’s Her Benny. She is also developing original time-travel fiction that blends history, nostalgia, and sharp human observation. Sarah writes to entertain, provoke thought, and spark conversation.
