Adam Gilchrist

An in-depth look into the life and times of Adam - and it covers everything from his childhood all the way to playing for Australia, as well as his personal and family life. All the time that I thought he was a batsman that could keep, it turns out that he always considered himself a keeper that could bat, and he had (and has) doubts and fears like the rest of us. Despite it's size, this was an easy read.

A good sports story. It highlights the amount of work he did to become a "natural". His dad was a cricket coach and he had many benefits from that relationship. Its a amazing that with all he ability he still lacked confidence for much of his career. A good read.
