Kompletní popis

Getting Out is the story of how Ukraine''s cricketers helped the people around them to escape from Russia''s invasion in 2022, including first-hand accounts of the war.

Cricket in Ukraine had a surprising and eccentric history. But when the bombings started, these cricketers found themselves in a fight for their lives as they rushed to the front lines to defend their country.

Meanwhile, some Ukrainian refugees had an altogether different battle as they began to play cricket in a park in southern Europe, and fought to keep their country’s cricketing heritage alive.

As well as eyewitness accounts of the first days of the war, the book holds many light-hearted stories – from the team where no one wanted to bat or bowl, to the biofuel developer who became Ukraine''s first professional cricketer.

It’s a story of courage, determination and hope, both on and off the field.
