Description

No cricketer of modern times has experienced Mike Yardy's highs and lows. A serial trophy winner with Sussex and England, as player and captain, but he suffered in silence as mental illness dogged his early career, until the walls closed in during the 2011 World Cup. Since then he has rebuilt his career and his life. Hard Yards is his unique story.
