All Round View Paperback – Jan. 1 1989

The author, now 35, is one of cricket's greatest all-rounders and the retiring captain of Pakistan's team. He tells of his life and the game he loves: from his childhood in Lahore, to his student days at Oxford (where he led the University team), his time at Worcester and thence to Sussex, culminating in his captaincy of Pakistan. A self portrait emerges of a man who has spent fifteen years at the top: years which have wrought changes - political, commercial and tactical - in the way cricket is played and promoted; changes too, in the man himself, as he reconciled his Muslim upbringing with the professional and personal pressures of being an international sportsman.

One of the best ever.

Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2011

Verified Purchase

This book is one of the best books I have ever read. For anyone with an interest in cricket history circa 1975 - 1988, this book provides a fantastic perspective. Much of what I understand about tactics and strategy of Test cricket I learned from this book, and my enjoyment of watching Test cricket has been greatly enriched as a result. The way Imran writes is unique, I have never elsewhere experienced an author who can be so eloquent yet at the same time so simple and frank in his discussions. His logic and reason are very refreshing, as are his simple and direct approach to life, and his determination and courage. I have noticed other reviewers of this book have also given a rating of five stars - it appears there is consensus of opinion. Even amongst other wonderful books I have read, this book is unique in its style and content. It is completely unlike any other cricket 'autobiography' I have read, most of which have been written by 'ghost' writers; Imran wrote his book without a 'ghost'.

Imran Khan, The Great

A very nice account of his memoirs from his Cricket playing days. A great read for any Pakistani Cricket fan and any Cricket fan in general. Imran was no doubt the best thing that ever happened to Pakistani Cricket.

Never really like Imran Khan during his playing days

Hi - I am an Indian. Never really like Imran Khan during his playing days. However, I read Imran Khan's first autobiography "Imran: Autobiography of Imran Khan Hardcover – October 3, 1983". I started liking him after reading that book. I believe Imran Khan is more open & honest in the book "Imran: Autobiography of Imran Khan Hardcover – October 3, 1983".

I believe Imran Khan is not really open in this book. Try reading "Imran: Autobiography of Imran Khan Hardcover – October 3, 1983" first.
