Yorkshire fast bowler Darren Gough is the most popular English cricketer since Ian Botham's heyday,and made his Test debut for England in 1994.A firm favourite with England's Barmy Army of travelling supporters and a hostile bowler of genuine pace,the Yorkshire and England fast bowler is one of the first names on the sheet at any selector's meeting.Darren Gough was a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1999,the same year as his spectacular hat-trick in the final Test against Australia,and he remains the lynchpin of England's strike force,having proved his worth again during the summer of 2000, when he was named England's Man of the Series in their remarkable victory over West Indies.His irrepressible appetite for the game and never-say-die attitude have captured the hearts of England fans and won the respect of opponents the world over.Now Darren Gough tells his story for the first time in this long- awaited autobiography.As honest and direct as his performances on the field, 'Dazzler' is a gripping account of the life in the fast lane of one of our most cherished and successful sportsmen.Essential reading for every cricket fan.
