Ashton Turner’s rollercoaster year took him from the verge of World Cup selection to a shocking run of ducks in the IPL. He talks candidly about the ups and downs and ‘overwhelming support’ that pulled him through.

He produced a record Ashes innings. Six months later he broke down in Justin Langer’s office. This is the story of how Ashton Agar grew as a cricketer and a person.

He's the son of a Pakistan legend. He learnt the Qur'an word for word. And he's on track to play cricket for Australia. This is the captivating story of Usman Qadir's journey from a sheltered childhood in Lahore to life in a very different culture.
