Indian Cricket Controversies

Front Cover
Diamond Pocket Books Pvt Ltd, Mar 15, 2017 - Sports & Recreation - 391 pages
The book is dedicated to cricket Winners who, if they happen to read it, should be men enough to restrain themselves from throwing stones at others.

As many as 117 controversies have been listed in the book which has been written after in-depth research from among piles of clippings, meticulously stocked and stored.

The book is not a fiction; nor it is a figament of imagination of any one.

There is no malice against any one. The controversies have merely been put together. They portray how flimsy, frivolous and fussy have been our stars since India?s entry into international cricket in 1932.
