However, in Rob's youth, the gangs were village cricket clubs, and the preferred weapon was a Gunn \u0026amp; Moore bat. Won't You Dance for Virat Kohli? is an honest, humorous, and colorful narrative of sporting obsession and how a childhood passion for cricket can control adult thoughts, dreams, relationships, and weekends. This is the tale of a modest club cricketer's misguided quest for personal respect and fulfillment in the most unusual of locations, foregoing vacations and family time to spend long summer days lounging around village greens with other screwed-up weekend warriors, while secretly wishing he was somewhere - anywhere - else. Anyone who knows and loves grass-roots cricket will relate to this book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 268g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 138 x 217 x 23 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781785317798\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rob Harris","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44101320016122,"sku":"9781785317798","price":7.72,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/98d6bceece36ccf8a8d929ddd462fde6.jpg?v=1628567154","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/wont-you-dance-for-virat-kohli-the-secret-life-and-thoughts-of-a-cricketing-badger","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
