India won the World Cup and England lost to New Zealand at home, both for the first time. There was a 35-minute century and a 14 all out.

Thatcher won a landslide election victory post-Falklands. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This is a warm, funny and insightful tale of tracking down a fondly remembered player from each county, each with his unique take on then and now. The book is based on the only cricket sticker album of the era. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Four decades on, the county game has transformed.
