Hedley Verity was one of Yorkshire and Englands greatest cricketers. In a career that ran from 1930 to 1939 - the left-arm spin bowler took 1 -956 wickets at an average of 14.90. Verity was chiefly responsible for Englands only Ashes victory at Lords in the 20th century - when his 15 wickets helped to win the 1934 Test - 14 of them captured in a single day. And he dismissed the legendary Australian batsman Don Bradman more times than anyone in Test cricket - claiming his wicket on eight occasions - and a record-equalling 10 times in first class cricket. But the high-water mark of Veritys career came during a long-forgotten County Championship match in 1932. On the Headingley ground near his birthplace - Verity returned staggering figures of 10 for 10 against Nottinghamshire - a world record that still stands.Now - for the first time - the story of this amazing game has been told as Chris Waters narrates it in relation to Veritys career - a career that ended with the outbreak of a war in which Verity was tragically killed at the age of 38.Warm and wistful - charming and colourful - 10 for 10: Hedley Verity and the story of crickets greatest bowling feat honours the history of our summer sport....
