Bails and Boardrooms is the story of one of Middlesex cricket's best-loved players - a man who used the sport to change his life. David Nash lived and breathed cricket from a very young age. Touted as a future England star at age 15, he eventually found the strains of life as a professional cricketer too great and suffered severe mental-health issues. But the end of Nashy's 16-year Middlesex career proved to be the beginning of something far greater. Determined to make something more of his life, he set out on a journey that would see him build a multi-million-pound business. It was a business that would be his proudest achievement. This book charts Nashy's extraordinary life, from a cricket career of unfulfilled potential to building a business using the lessons he learnt from sport and raising millions for charity. This is a story for anyone who loves cricket or is interested in entrepreneurship. It's a story that shows how hard work, determination and talent can take you almost anywhere.

Biographical note

David Nash (better known as Nashy) is one of Middlesex's best-loved cricketers, with over 250 top-level county appearances to his name. After cricket, Nashy was determined to do far better off the field than he did on it. In ten short years after retiring from the sport, he built a business that has already raised over GBP20 million for charities across the UK. This book, his first, is about that journey.
