6/10/2023 0 Comments Legend of pradeep mathewWhen you say it like that it sounds ludicrous. I told her then that she was talking nonsense. She asked me this a long time ago, when boys on motorbikes, wielding Das Capital and T-56s, had the nation facedown in the sand. More than I do my son and our life together. My wife asks me why I love sport more than her. Here, WG ponders his reasons for going on this quest. Retired sports journalist, WG Karunasena decides to find out what became of Mathew and why he never fulfilled his potential. Today those who remember Mathew describe him as the most gifted Sri Lankan cricketer to ever walk the earth.

Selected by Waterstones as a Top 11 debut of 2011.Ĭhosen by Wisden in 2020 as the second greatest cricket book of all time. Winner of the Commonwealth Book Prize 2012, the DSC Prize for South Asian Literature 2012, and the Gratiaen Prize 2008. Published by Random House India/Jonathan Cape UK.
