Description
The most famous sports book in the world, Wisden Cricketers' Almanack has been published every year since 1864. The selected writings from the 160th edition contained in this eBook offer trenchant opinion, compelling features and an authoritative voice on the worldwide game.
The Shorter Wisden is a compelling distillation of what's best in its bigger brother – and the 2023 edition of Wisden is crammed, as ever, with the best writing in the game. Wisden's digital version includes the influential Notes by the Editor, and all the front-of-book articles.
In an age of snap judgments, Wisden's authority and integrity are more important than ever. Yet again this year's edition is truly a “must-have” for every cricket fan. In essence, The Shorter Wisden is a glass of the finest champagne rather than the whole bottle.

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.

By a distance the greatest book ever published. This year's almanack was better than last year's, which in turn was better than the year before – for ever.
