THE BOOK
In the summer of ’77-78, Kerry Packer enlisted 35 of
the world’s best players to kick-start World Series
Cricket. Its influence on the game is still seen today
and here, Packer’s friend and confidante tells the
tale of how it came to be, complete with first-hand
accounts from 48 of the game’s biggest stars.
Shane Warne knows a thing or two about the game,
so when he says this is the “greatest cricket story
ever told,” we’re inclined to believe him.

With summer comes a host of
great sporting events, giving
spectators a chance to sit back,
beer in hand, and let the pros do
the talking. First up, Sydney to
Hobart, the nation’s favourite
yacht race, not least because
it starts on Boxing Day, thus
offering a great opportunity to
prolong festivities by watching
en masse with friends and
family. If that doesn’t float your
boat (sorry) then check out the
Tour Down Under in Adelaide,
Australia’s premier road-cycling
race. This year sees the return
of Peter Sagan, fresh from his
historic three golds at the recent
UCI World Road Championships.

The approach of beach
season may mean ditching
the pub for the gym. Yes, it’s
not as fun, but at least that
pain you feel the next day
won’t come with a side of
existential dread. If you don’t
fancy working out solo, then
98 Gym is now doing group
strength and conditioning
classes. Run by celeb trainer
Chris Feather, who recently
bought out his partner’s
stake in the gym – a certain
Russell Crowe – 98 Gym
uses goal-based training
that aims to improve mental
toughness, helping you
push your body that extra
mile. And we could all do with
a bit of that.
