WORTH READING October 25, 2003 Misbah Zulfiqar 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Javed Miandad was one of the pioneers of pakistani cricket. Not only was he a very controversial cricketer, his cricketing abilities were very advanced. This book gives us an insight of the real Javed. It was truly fascinating to see things from his point of view.The language he uses is simple and straight to the point. Any follower of the great game is sure to find this a very interesting read.
Cricket lover's delight July 3, 2003 Miles Gordon (Massachusetts, USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Javed Miandad was both a great batsman and a colourful character, not to mention an aggressive in-your-face competitor. His autobiography delivers all of that, and more. The language is refreshingly simple and straightforward, ideal for narrating the story of this gifted yet troubled Pakistani genius. The book contains 23 chapters, and touches on all the interesting topics and events that a Miandad fan would want to know about. All the great high-points and the famous controversies are all here, laid out in clear, flowing prose that is rich in anecdotes and opinions. If there is one thing to quibble about in the book, it is that Miandad sometimes seems to contradict himself. But perhaps that is just a reflection of the man, brilliant yet conflicted. I recommend this book very highly. It's a fantastic memoir that is sure to entertain any follower of the game.
