Celebrate the men and women of cricket, hand-picked by the legendary Adam Gilchrist as some of the greatest team players the game has ever seen.

He will introduce 30 ultimate team players whose passion, leadership and risk-taking have shaped Australian cricket.

This new book features anecdotes, stats, biographical information and brilliant illustrations by Michael Weldon.

Speaking with Gareth Parker, Gilly said the book isn’t a “deep dive”.

“It’s my recollection of what I saw in those great players and the team mates I played with and the impression they made on the game.

“And so to the current payers that are in there.

“It is good fun.”
