Hooker, Azzie, Erica and the rest all play cricket in their spare time, but they’ve never taken it very seriously until now. Kiddo, one of their school teachers, suggests they form an official team and play proper matches – and Glory Gardens C.C. is formed. Hooker, as captain, soon finds out that cricket teams weren’t built in a day: some players squabble, some can’t catch, and some have tantrums and go home at half-time! So will Glory Gardens go all out for victory . . . or will they be out for a duck?
