Publishers Description: Victor TRUMPER is, arguably, the most misunderstood of all Australias great sportsmen. Many cricket enthusiasts, adopting their own assumptions and paradigms, have been unable to reconcile his legend with the cold, hard statistics. In a robust and statistically rigorous way, this book demonstrates how it is possible for a player to have modest overall numbers and yet be the most consummate and accomplished performer in history. It has often been claimed that Trumper played for the team and not for the averages. For the first time, his scoring patterns are exposed and interpreted in a holistic manner that gives rise to a new theory - a run scoring hierarchy.This hierarchy represents the complete reconciliation of legend and fact.
