TFW Book Club - James Vince and the unbearable sadness of batting, with Jon Hotten
from The Final Word Cricket Podcast · host Adam Collins, Geoff Lemon
Jon Hotten is one of the most engaging writers our game is blessed with, so any topic he turns his pen to is going to be worth reading about. His latest book, Vinciness, is unusual as the subject isn’t really what he’s writing about. Not all the time, anyway. For the “decadent and depraved” majesty of cover driving to so much more, Daniel Norcross steered the conversation with this outstanding author, and friend of the pod, during a Surrey interval.
