This book is a spin-off of a series of articles, many of which have appeared in newspapers. Taking famous pairs of Indian Cricket (e.g. Gavaskar and Vishwanath, Bedi and Prasanna, Ashok Mankad and Surinder Amarnath), it sets off one career against another, balancing their test performance against their domestic record but never pronouncing a verdict on which career was better. Mukherjee’s book is marked by impeccable research and sharp, critical observation.
