dc.description.abstract | Crosscurrents is a thought-provoking, even provacative book, which explores the recent troubled cricket relations between Sri Lanka and Australia. The Sri Lankan team's Australian tour in 1995/96 was marked by some tempestuous episodes. The Australian decision to forfeit its World Cup match in Sri Lanka, after a terrorist bomb, added to the drama. Crosscurrents is the first anthology to explore Sri Lanka's cricketing relationship with Australia since 1884 when the first of many Australian teams played a game or two en route to England. | en |
