The most famous sports book in the world, Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack has been published every year since 1864. Home to some of the finest sports writing of the year – from the likes of Lawrence Booth, Gideon Haigh, Rob Smyth, Patrick Collins, Simon Wilde, Osman Samiuddin, Tony Cozier, Benj Moorehead, Raf Nicholson and Dileep Premachandran – it includes the eagerly awaited Notes by the Editor, the Cricketers of the Year awards, and the famous obituaries. As always, it contains coverage of every first-class game in every cricket nation, and reports and scorecards for all Tests and ODIs, together with trenchant opinion, compelling features and comprehensive records.

A perennial bestseller in the UK, yet again this year’s edition – the 154th, Wisden 2017 – is truly a “must-have” for every cricket fan.

""There can't really be any doubt about the cricket book of the year, any year: it's obviously Wisden"" Andrew Baker in the Daily Telegraph

In these times of upheaval, when nothing seems certain anymore, how we need Wisden's reassuring presence. One imagines that even after a nuclear apocalypse it would continue to be publishing, compiling stats of indoor cricket matches played in bunkers, and considering the effect having six-and-a-half-billion fewer people on the planet will have on cricket's popularity All Out Cricket Wisden...it's the book that just keeps on giving back to the game The Cricket Paper Wisden today is in better shape than at any time in its long history Times Literary Supplement The book has become an institution www.espncricinfo.com The greatest and most diverse trove of cricket writing anywhere in the Western world The Cricketer
