Eleven Bats: A Story of Cricket and the SAS By Harry Moffitt
2021 | 384 Pages | ISBN: 1760877840 | EPUB | 13 MB
Anthony ‘Harry’ Moffitt spent more than 20 years in the SAS. His decades of service and his multiple tours in East Timor, Iraq and Afghanistan made him one of the regiment’s most experienced and respected figures.Alongside the SAS, Harry’s other lifetime love is cricket. An improvised game of backyard cricket was often the circuit-breaker Harry and his team needed after the tension of operations. Recognizing the effect of the game on his fellow soldiers, he began a tradition of organising games and matches wherever he was sent, whether it was in the mountains of East Timor with a fugitive rebel leader, or on the dusty streets of Baghdad, or in exposed Forward Operating Bases in the hills of Afghanistan. Soldiers, locals and even visiting politicians played in these spontaneous yet often bridge-building games. As part of the tradition Harry also started to take a cricket bat with him on operational tours, eleven of them in total across his career. They’d travel with him, often go outside the wire with him, and end up signed by those he met or fought alongside. These eleven bats have formed the basis for Harry’s extraordinary memoir. It’s a book about combat, and what it takes to serve in one of the world’s most elite formations. It’s a book about the toll that war takes on soldiers and their loved ones. And it’s a book about the healing power of cricket, and how a game can cross boundaries and break down borders even in the most desperate of circumstances.
