Great stories of unusual happenings on and off the cricket field.
The story of cricket is littered with big stories, like Bodyline, underarm balls and tycoons changing the game. But, like Tony Greig checking out the pitch with his keys, sometimes things fall through the cracks.
Sticky Wickets takes a look at stories both big, small and perhaps forgotten. From bees and their dislike of cricket to a storm caused when a cameraman criticised a Test player's fielding. It's perfect to pick up when rain delays play.

Glen Humphries spent a decade playing fullback and back pocket for the Port Kembla Blacks reserve grade side. In that time, he acquired a flag, two concussions, several broken fingers and a bunch of stitches. He has written numerous books, mainly on the holy trinity of beer, music and footy. His other Gelding Street books include Sticky Wickets, Jack Gibson's Fur Coat and Aussie Rock Anthems. A journalist for three decades, he lives and works in Wollongong, NSW.
