Summary
Many critics believe Adam Gilchrist is the greatest wicketkeeper/batsman to have played the game, but Adam's huge popularity does not rest solely on his incredible track record. To his millions of fans around the world, it is the way he plays the game - rather than simply the sum of his achievements - that marks him out as one of the best-loved cricketers of his generation.
True Colours is his autobiography, and like the man himself it's incomparable. With unflinching honesty, intelligence, compassion and humour, Adam takes you into the world of cricket that few outside of the Australian team have ever seen. From his early struggles to establish himself, through to the giant achievements of the Australian test and one-day sides, True Colours offers an extraordinary window on Adam, on cricket's major stars and on the game itself.

decent!
I dont know what the reviews about the narrator are about, he was on the slower and clearer side but it wasnt like he hadn't practiced.

So badly read.
I really can't believe how badly this was read, really spoiled the book.
I can't believe there wasn't an editor who put this right.

Narrator change?
The first 8 chapters were a struggle! The narrator sounded like an AI with pauses in all the wrong places and a monotone delivery; however, chapter 9 sounds like a completely different person and the narration improves 100%.
Hopefully the rest of the book is like this.
Adam Gilchrist comes across as such a nice fella, not like the Aussie you loved to hate at all. A great read/listen so far.
Now looking forward to the rest of the book!

Poorly read
I enjoyed the stroy and the deep honesty of the man Adam Gilchrist. The reader managed to convey the impression that he had not rehearsed the material, in fact at times he seemed to be a total stranger to the text. Pity
