Description

This scholarly work from Routledge examines cricket's role in shaping national identity across postcolonial Test-playing nations. Bringing together leading international writers, the book moves beyond the romanticised image of cricket as a genteel English pastime to reveal its profound political, cultural, and economic dimensions in the twenty-first century. It offers original historical analysis of the game's development across the Commonwealth, including detailed exploration of cricket cultures in Sri Lanka, Pakistan, the Caribbean, India, Australia, and New Zealand. The study integrates governance, economics, and social dynamics to demonstrate how cricket has become inseparable from national politics and identity formation in the postcolonial world.

Key Features

Routledge publishes this political and historical study examining cricket's development across major Test-playing nations in the postcolonial era.

The book covers cricket cultures in Sri Lanka, Pakistan, the Caribbean, India, Australia, and New Zealand with in-depth analysis of each nation's relationship to the sport.

Contributors include leading international writers and scholars who explore how cricket shapes culture, politics, governance, and economics in the twenty-first century.

This work challenges the notion of cricket as merely a gentle game, instead presenting it as a complex force in postcolonial national identity and social development.
