‘It is just the kind of book to whet the appetite as we await the action to start’ — SUNIL GAVASKAR This is an eye-witness history of the Cricket World Cup from an Indian perspective. It highlights the turning point for India at Berbice; has reports and scores on all India matches in World Cup competition as well as on every semi-final and final, including India's triumphs in 1983 and 2011. It also amplifies the Indian victory in the World Championship of Cricket in 1985; and previews the 2015 World Cup. Praise for the book ‘I have known Ashis for some years now and am aware that he can be a wonderful raconteur’ RAHUL DRAVID, former Indian captain and now a TV commentator ‘I have known Ashis Ray forever, it seems, and have loved his style of writing’ SUNIL GAVASKAR, Former Indian Captain ‘I have known Ashis Ray for many years and have found him outstanding in his work in the media’ RICHIE BENAUD, former Australian captain and TV presenter and commentator ‘His commentaries are in precise classical English’ Late TREVOR BAILEY, England all-rounder and BBC expert commentator ‘Voice of India’ Sun-Herald of Australia

About the Author

Ashis Ray made his debut as a test match commentator in 1975. He was the only Asian ball-by-ball commentator in the 1983 World Cup. He has commentated on cricket for the BBC, ABC of Australia, SKY SPORTS UK and SONY. He has reported or commented on cricket for every major British and Indian newspaper. His home entertainment video, Great Moments of Indian Cricket 1932-86, released by HMV and Virgin in 1987, became an international bestseller. His TV documentary, 1983: India’s World Cup, screened in various countries, narrowly missed being short-listed for a BAFTA Award. His book, One-Day Cricket: The Indian Challenge, published by HarperCollins in 2007, became a bestseller in India. London-based, Ray is the longest serving Indian foreign correspondent, having worked in this capacity since 1977 for BBC, CNN, the Ananda Bazar Group and The Times of India. He is presently editor-director of a soon-to-be-launched text and TV news agency.
