From Kent's Green Fields to Australia's Premier Pitches: One Umpire's Revolutionary Journey

A cricket-mad Australian is living in England when he trades his playing whites for an umpire's coat.

For the next six years, he has the best seat in the house, umpiring matches at some of the world's most picturesque cricket grounds in 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 pastime - 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 extraordinary 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.

Whether you are a die-hard fan or simply curious about the nuances of umpiring, Stumped is your invitation to share in this remarkable story.

Don't be caught on the back foot - get your copy of Stumped now and enjoy this inspiring, laugh-out-loud memoir today.
