Don'ts for Cricketers: Illustrated Edition is a charming collection of classic cricketing advice, originally published in the early 20th century. The book presents hundreds of humorous and practical “don’ts” covering how players should approach batting, bowling, fielding and the wider game of cricket. Derek Pringle, former England Test cricketer, contributes the foreword to this illustrated edition.

The advice ranges from cricket technique and equipment to conduct, etiquette, captaincy, umpiring, training young cricketers, practice and preparation. Alongside the advice, the book offers a fascinating glimpse into the traditions and sporting culture of early twentieth-century British cricket.
