It is about stunning spells-those few overs that occur rarely in cricket, when bowlers weave magic and batsmen are mesmerized. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e What did the stunning bowling spells of Anil Kumble, Narendra Hirwani, Ravichandran Ashwin, Padmakar Shivalkar, and Yuzvendra Chahal achieve that Kapil Dev's career best spell could not? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Curtly Ambrose and Sarfraz Nawaz, 14-years apart, bowled identical deadly spells against the same opposition taking 7 wickets for 1 run. Who were the hapless victims? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Why did Gary Gilmour of Australia with an ODI bowling average of 10.31 and Clarrie Grimmett of Australia after taking 13 wickets in a Test in two magnificent spells, never play for their respective countries again? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Spell-binding Spells looks at 50 of the most magnificent bowling spells in the history of cricket and answers some of these questions. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e VVS Laxman says: \"This book is a tribute to bowlers, a breed that has never profited from the benefit of the doubt in a sport whose rules have historically always favoured batsmen. This nice little treatise is a reminder that we must ensure that the history of this game continues to get passed on from one generation to the next.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anindya Dutta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1947988840\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781947988842\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Notion Press, Inc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/22\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.76d","brand":"Anindya Dutta","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076875284735,"sku":"9781947988842","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8d2eb6cb-2c6e-4b43-8e30-0999bfa9ff5a.jpg?v=1685467267","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/spell-binding-spells-anindya-dutta-9781947988842","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
