eBay Sweep: Malcolm Marshall book
I adored Malcolm Marshall when I was growing up, and I'm not really sure why. He played for Hampshire whereas I am from Lancashire; he is West Indian (how they could have done with him in the Cricket World Cup) but I am English; yet there was something wonderful about Maco that left me entranced.
Maybe it was sidewinding run up before he unleashed the ball at his blood-chilling pace, or the fact that he was quite short, or the fact that he could bat as well. Whatever it was, he was a hero of mine and I was truly, profoundly upset at his tragic death at just 41 years of age. Anyway, fans of his can pick up a biography on eBay now for the current bargain price of £4.99. The only drawback is that it is certain to contain loads of poncy ramblings by Mark Nicholas.
