How Women's Cricket Changed an Umpire's Life
A cricket-mad Australian trades his player's whites for an umpire's coat, embarking on an unexpected journey of self-discovery.
For six years, he occupies the best seat in the house at some of England's most picturesque cricket grounds - umpiring matches throughout Kent and Sussex.
But it's his return to Australia that bowls him a googly.
Captivated by the skill and talent of the world's best female cricketers, he joins the Victorian Premier Cricket Umpires Panel, asking to stand exclusively in women's matches.
Will the cricketing establishment embrace his vision, or will his umpiring career be run out before it has begun?
Stumped is a unique and entertaining tribute to an ancient and fascinating game - a delightful recollection filled with humour, insight and a genuine love for cricket.
From the intricacies of umpiring to the changing face of the sport, this engaging tale offers a fresh perspective that will appeal to cricket enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
Step onto the pitch with author and umpire Richard Harrison as he breaks new ground in women's cricket, and shares his passion for the game.
