The ultimate Ashes read for cricket lovers from National Treasure Phil Tufnell.

Phil Tufnell played in five Ashes series and has commentated on another ten. With the next tear-up just around the corner, Tuffers has sat down and personally chosen his 50 Ashes 'legends' from the modern era and from both sides of the divide.

Tuffers' Ashes Heroes is crammed with cricketers he has played with or against, admired from afar, enjoyed a drink with or just knows well. Everyone from Ian Botham, Freddie Flintoff, Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad to Merv Hughes, Ricky Ponting, Shane Warne and Steve Smith.

Each 'hero' gets a properly funny, entertaining and affectionate pen portrait. 'Heroes', 'legends', and 'characters': all knitted together into the perfect cricket lover's book and written with Tufnell's trademark warmth, self-effacing humour and unmatched storytelling.
