Wisden Cricketers' Almanack 2018 Summary

Wisden Cricketers' Almanack 2018 by Lawrence Booth

*Hardback edition* In this 155th edition of the Almanack, we celebrate Englands spectacular win over India in the Women's Cricket World Cup. Anya Shrubsole helped to make history at Lords and now she becomes the first woman to feature on the front cover of the Almanack. Among the feature articles, Simon Wilde reflects on the passage to England's 1,000th Test, Harry Pearson celebrates 50 years of overseas players in the county game, and Tanya Aldred examines sexism in cricket. Mike Selvey looks at the psychology of the new-ball partnership, while Zafar Ansari explains why he gave it all up at the age of 25. Gideon Haigh has fun with cricketers and their mannerisms, and Andy Zaltzman hails James Anderson's ascent to 500 Test wickets. @WisdenAlmanack

Even at the age of 155, Wisden intends to keep on turning. It still sets the standard, whether it's bought as a gift, a decoration, an encyclopaedia or a huge magazine. The Wisden Almanack is all things to all men. And to all women. -- Rob Smyth * ESPN *
Wisden lands on the doorstep with a joyous thud. Its daffodil-yellow cover is the signal to anticipate the delights of spring and summer and its contents are always a treasure to relish. The oldest of sporting annuals has captured the rare trick of remaining for ever young -- Jim Holden * Sunday Express *
