Description

*Softcover edition*

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 forthright opinion, compelling features and comprehensive records.

A perennial bestseller in the UK, yet again this year's edition – the 164th, Wisden 2027 – 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, The Daily Telegraph

It is a book of three parts: comment; record; and delightful minutiae, which always brings the most cheer.

Mike Atherton, The Times
The publication of Wisden is cricket's equivalent of the state opening of Parliament. It's another great edition.

Oborne and Heller on Cricket podcast
The pages are stacked full of information, quirks and great analysis of the game, as well as being a wonderful record.

Alison Mitchell, BBC World Service Stumped
The big yellow book. The important one. The one aliens will be reading in hundreds of years' time when we as a species have wiped ourselves out and they've come down to work out how cricket worked.
