About
My profile picture, for those of you wondering which one I am, is me (on the left!) with Neil Harvey MBE who was, in 1948, one of Don Bradman's 'Invincibles'.
As you may well surmise, my interests are the historical, sociological and cultural machinations of what was once the national game. Specifically, the philosophical origins of amateurism and how amateurism was used as a means of distinction between the cricketing classes.
Such a ‘cultural war’ over the definition of sporting practice and the legitimate function of sporting activity I argue has had significant regional repercussions regarding the meaning of cricket.
