Fearsome Fred always took the new ball
He was lightning fast and ever so tall
He'd sprint to the crease with one final jump
He'd aim to hit the top of off stump...
Cricket Our Great Summer Game is the great way of introducing Cricket to children in a rhyming story. Two vibrant pictures and eight lines of rhyme explain the role of all the key players in a game of cricket, including opening batsmen, tailenders, fast bowlers, spinners and even the umpires, using the terminology of the great game.
