Hemmings gives an honest account of the highs and low of his career with Nottinghamshire and England. As an unlikely sportsman - he is both short-sighted and asthmatic - Hemmings recalls highlights such as his ten wickets in a match against the West Indies and his performance in the 1989 Benson and Hedges Cup Final, when he drove the last ball of the match from John Lever for a winning four. Hemmings also discusses life on tour and in the dressing rooms of Edgbaston and Trent Bridge and his views on his contemporaries such as Chris Broad and Bob Willis.
