Tribune likes the controversy

As they say, controversy sells. And the Tribune found plenty of juicy anecdotes in ours.

Jokes aside, for the record, we were keen to put any controversy in context of the larger issues in women’s cricket at the time, and we hope to have done that.

For a book tracing the history of women’s cricket, The Fire Burns Blue could have easily slipped into the trap of compiling match reports and stats. Thankfully, it doesn’t … the book also touches upon issues such as career vs marriage, gender bias, et al. And all this makes this book a delight to read.
