Brendon McCullum

Twenty20 cricket has quickly become the most popular form of the game and paralleling this popularity surge has been New Zealand’s wicketkeeper-batsman Brendon McCullum. He is now regarded as New Zealand’s best T20 player and one of the world’s foremost exponents of the shortened game. Allied to his great cricketing skills, Brendon’s outgoing disposition have endeared him to all followers of the game. The thrust of the book would be an insider’s look into the high octane world of Twenty20 cricket. There would obviously be a huge focus on the IPL – including that remarkable innings of Brendon’s, which laid the perfect foundation for the opening tournament in 2008. As well, there would be a large section of the book devoted to the 2009 T20 World Cup, being played in England. Given the popularity of both Brendon and the game itself, a skills section would be a valuable inclusion. There would also be an opportunity for Brendon to give his views on the three forms of the world game and analyse where he thinks cricket should be heading.
