Chapter Chapter 1 in Management of the Cricketing Ecosystem, 2022, pp 1-20 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract For those not too familiar with the history of the game of cricket, George Robert Canning Harris, better known as Lord Harris, was a former test cricketer, a fine batsman and a finer administrator who did much to expand and popularise the game when international cricket was still in its infancy. Cricket has come a long way since then, with a thriving ecosystem powered by star appeal and is now played across all continents with permanent human habitat. The beginning, though, as in almost every sphere, was modest, while the first allusion to the game would come in far less sanguine circumstances.
