Cricketer, Captain, Guru
With the exception of Sir Donald Bradman, no man has had such an enormous influence on Australian cricket in the twentieth century as Richie Benaud.
One of his country's finest all-rounders and arguably its best captain, Benaud has been in the cricketing public eye since the early 1950s. Sometimes an outspoken critic of the game's authorities, his love of cricket and his desire for its long-term well-being cannot be questioned. This is a complete biography of Richie Benaud since 1962.
