Ten Out pays homage to those who have taken all ten wickets in a first-class innings. Going right back to William Lillywhite, for his feat in 1837, all told there have been 90 occasions and 83 individuals who can take credit in the 252 years since William Lillywhite set the ball rolling in 1837. Roughly 90 times in some 200,000 innings. Ten Out is a fascinating journey through cricket's development – over time and across continents, with many unusual and surprising stories to tell.

[Peter Tee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Brilliant book for those who have played the game and know how hard it is to achieve. Written by a true gentleman who is so humble about his achievement. Best book I have read this year. If you love cricket or simply great true stories do yourself a favour and read this.
