Gideon Haigh has trained an unblinking eye on cricket for nearly thirty years. An Eye on Cricket selects the best of his work since 2013, a period of unprecedented change in the summer game in Australia and overseas, encompassing the recapture and loss of the Ashes, the triumph of the World Cup, the rise of the Big Bash League, the tragedy of Phillip Hughes, the eclipse of Michael Clarke, and the passing of former greats from Richie Benaud to Max Walker. The result is a vivid, often exciting, regularly amusing and sometimes alarming panorama, incorporating the future of Test cricket in a Twenty20 era, of Australia in an Indianised game, of fun in a professional world, and the scourges of fixing and doping - an essential guide to the greatest game of all.

Gideon Haigh was born on London and raised in Geelong, resident in Melbourne, Gideon Haigh hasbeen a journalist since 1984, contributed to more than 100 newspapers and magazines, written thirty-two books and edited seven others. He has been a regular panellist on the ABCs Offsiders since 2005, and reported the 2017-18 Ashes for The Australian and The Times. He is the author of An Eye on Cricket (2017) and Shadows on the Pitch (2018).
