Definitive guide to umpiring and scoring
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Tom Smith's "Cricket Umpiring and Scoring" is probably one of the most comprehensive guides to the skills of officiating in the game of cricket available. It is an indispensible companion for umpires and scorers alike. It not only includes the 42 Laws of the game with their notes (as compiled and released by the MCC in the 1980 Code), but it has full definitions and interpretations on each of the Laws. Knowledge of these Laws and how to apply them on the field of play as an umpire (or indeed a scorer recording the events on the side of it) is integral to the successful completion of any game of cricket, especially at the higher level. Smith's book gives umpires detailed guidance in field techniques and discusses possible problems and permutations in scoring. The book has three parts to it and covers every aspect of umpiring and scoring from duties before the match to off-the-field training tips. For anyone attempting to enter the game as an umpire or scorer (and for players wishing to improve their knowledge of the Laws), this book is highly recommended. Both novices and experts in the pursuits of umpiring and scoring will find the book informative and have regular use for it.
