This was all completely new to me, thank you! Added CLR James to my never-ending list of books to get hold of. I love the list of "included but not in any way limited to."
Although I think it's got to be after James' time, you might enjoy the "Victory Test Match Calypso" celebrating the West Indies' win in cricket against England in 1950, which is both catchy and touching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFl9x3XzKSw

(The little I know about cricket I learned from Antonia Forest's Cricket Term, which is a wonderful book but also part of a ten-book series, otherwise not much cricket-related...).
