Summary

An Umpire's Journey Through Cricket's Evolution 
In a sport where legends are forged on hallowed grounds from Lord's to Eden Gardens, one umpire's story stands apart. 
A passionate Australian cricketer trades his whites for an umpire's coat, embarking on a journey that would challenge cricket's traditions. For six years, he witnesses the game's magic from cricket's most privileged position - standing in matches across England's most storied grounds, where giants of the game once played. 
But it's his return to Australia that delivers an unexpected twist - like a Kumble googly that deceives even the most seasoned batsman. 
Inspired by the rising tide of women's cricket - a phenomenon that has given India superstars like Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana - he makes an unprecedented decision. Joining the Victorian Premier Cricket Umpires Panel, he chooses to stand exclusively in women's matches, becoming a champion for the fastest-growing segment of our beloved sport. 
Stumped is more than just a memoir - it's a window into cricket's soul. Through the unique lens of an umpire, author Richard Harrison captures the game's finest nuances, from the technical mastery required in decision-making to the various elements that enshrine the spirit of cricket. 
Join Richard as he shares fascinating insights into: 
The art and science of umpiring at elite levels 
Cricket's evolution from traditional men's formats to the explosive growth of the women's game 
Behind-the-scenes stories that will delight every true cricket lover
