Brendon McCullum is known as an explosive wicketkeeper,
then batsman, who went on to captain the New Zealand
cricket team to glory. The holder of many records, 'Baz'
is known for speaking his mind. He talks about growing up
loving sport more than anything, getting better and better
at cricket (although he was a good enough rugby player to
keep Dan Carter out of the South Island Schoolboy rugby
team) and his uncertain transition to international
cricketer. In this explosive autobiography he opens up on
the many controversies he has been involved in, including
the Chris Cairns affair and the leadership change from
Ross Taylor. He exposes behind-the scenes machinations as
well as the private moments of exultation, tumult and
despair. One of New Zealand's and the worlds most admired
cricketers, he is credited with changing the face of the
game internationally.
