Description

From the very first time he watched Sachin Tendulkar bat as a 12-year-old boy, Adam Carroll-Smith was transfixed. He dreamed of not just bowling to the 'Little Master', but actually knocking his off-stump over, too. The only problem was, he was never much of a cricketer. But determined not to let a small detail like that get in the way - and eager to settle an old score with a childhood chum - Carroll-Smith spends a hilarious summer trying to achieve the unthinkable, fending off the unwanted attentions of over-zealous Indian fans, crazed Italian spiritualists and his meddling best friend - not to mention the dozens of blazered officials and luminous-jacketed stewards stood between him and his hero.

The story of one Sachin Tendulkar fan's unlikely mission to try and bowl just one ball at his childhood hero during India's 2011 tour of England.

? A fast-paced, uniquely comic and heart-warming account of the highs and lows of a summer spent striving to achieve the near-impossible, peppered with beer-pickled anecdotes, razor-sharp humour and a healthy dollop of farce

? The book marks former national newspaper sports reporter Adam Carroll-Smith's literary debut
