Publishers Description: Howzat!' Is a collection of Australia's best cricket stories, taken from classic accounts, memoirs and diaries of players and commentators alike. From Bodyline and Don Bradman through to the hypnotising magic of Shane Warne, Steve Waugh's iron concentration, the flair and exuberance of Adam Gilchrist and the brute power of Ricky Ponting, 'Howzat!' gives you the scandals, the great innings, the memorable moments and the classic matches that every cricket fan will love. Included is the story of "Fast" Eddie Gilbert, Australia's unsung Aboriginal pace bowler, whom Bradman was convinced was the fastest bowler he had ever faced in all his cricket days. It was the one and only time a bowler ever knocked the bat out of the mighty Bradman's hand.
