The much-loved former England player, Guardian
cricket correspondent and TMS broadcaster tells the story of his life
in cricket for the first time. In April 1974 new recruits Viv Richards,
Ian Botham, Peter Roebuck and Vic Marks reported for duty at Somerset
County Cricket Club. Apart from Richards, 'all of us were eighteen years
old, though Botham seemed to have lived a bit longer - or at least more
vigorously - than the rest.' In this irresistible memoir of a life
lived in cricket, Vic Marks returns to the heady days when Richards and
Botham were young men yet to unleash their talents on the world stage
while he and Roebuck looked on in awe. After the high-octane dramas of
Somerset, playing for England was almost an anti-climax for Marks, who
became an unlikely all-rounder in the mercurial side of the 1980s.
Moving from the dressing room to the press box, with trenchant
observations about the modern game along the way, Original Spin is a
charmingly wry, shrewdly observed account of a golden age in cricket.
Victor James Marks (born 25 June 1955)[2] is a sport journalist and former professional cricketer.
An off spin bowler, Marks played in six Test matches and
thirty four One Day Internationals for England. His entire county
cricket career was spent with Somerset, spanning the period between 1975
and 1989. Marks Scaricare Marks, V PDF Gratis ~ Come scaricare libri

Marks was born on 25 June 1955 in Middle Chinnock,
Somerset. He was educated at Blundell's School and Oxford University,
for whom he played cricket between 1975 and 1978 (alongside Imran Khan
and Chris Tavaré, and opposite Peter Roebuck of Cambridge University,

Marks' captain at Somerset). Marks captained Oxford University in 1976
and 1977.
Marks made his first-class debut for Somerset in the 1975
County Championship. Five years later he made his debut for the national
team, in an ODI against the West Indies. His Test debut was in 1982
against Pakistan.

He went on to play six Test matches,[2] and was an important member of
the ODI squad during the 1980s, appearing thirty four times and taking
forty four wickets at a bowling average of 25.79. His haul of five for
20 for England against New Zealand in 1984 was, for Scaricare Marks, V

best bowling return in One Day Internationals;[3] it remains the best
one-day figures by an England spin bowler. Marks was the first England
bowler to take two ODI five-wicket hauls (having previously taken five
wickets against Sri Lanka in 1983). This feat was subsequently emulated
by the Scaricare Marks, V PDF Gratis ~ Come scaricare libri PDF seam
bowlers Darren Gough, Mark Ealham and Andrew Flintoff; the first spin
bowler to equal Marks' record was Adil Rashid
in 2019.
Marks had a distinguished first-class career between 1975
and 1989 for Somerset. He also played a season for Western Australia in
the 1986–87 season, winning the Sheffield Shield. Scaricare Marks, V

859 wickets at 33.28, and scored 12,419 runs at a batting average of
30.29.
As a cricketer he was popular and well-liked; Wisden
editor, Matthew Engel, labelled him "a mild, nervy, self-deprecating
farm boy with an Oxford degree and no enemies". This was an Scaricare
Marks, V PDF Gratis ~ Come scaricare libri PDF unusual distinction in
the Somerset side of the 1980s, where three explosive personalities, Viv
Richards, Joel Garner and Ian Botham, had a dispute with captain Peter
Roebuck, which resulted in Somerset (under the influence from Roebuck
and new club Secretary Tony Brown) opting not to renew Richards' and
Garner's contracts Scaricare Marks, V PDF Gratis ~ Come scaricare libri
PDF in 1986, and Botham leaving the club in protest.
The cricket correspondent Colin Bateman noted that "in
typical self-deprecating style, Vic Marks entitled one of his books,
Marks Out of
XI. He was probably out of the England XI slightly too
often. While he was never a fashionable cricketer, he Scaricare Marks, V

effective off-spinner-cum-batsman whose Test figures stand comparison
with those often picked ahead of him, such as Geoff Miller and Eddie
Hemmings".[2]
After retiring as a professional cricketer, he turned his
hand to journalism and broadcasting, and is now a regular summariser on
Test Match Special. Scaricare Marks, V PDF Gratis ~ Come scaricare
