Around the Wicket is the story of a year in the life of the Little Lampton Cricket Club - a club which seems to have more than its fair share of misfits, ne'er-do-wells and disaster prone members and supporters. MCC member and bestselling author Vernon Coleman believes that the best - and most entertaining - cricket is played at village level.
