Great cricket reference
The Cricketers' Who's Who 2006

Very good small format softcover book with 780 pages ( Booksize 16mo = SextoDecimo = 17 X 12 cm ).
Each player and umpire is listed with a small B&W portrait photo and his qualifications and statistics. An invaluable reference book for every cricket fan!

I just wanted to see 5 extra pages with photos of the world's best ever cricketers as Brain Lara isn't listed and he should belong in a cricketers book even if it only lists first-class county UK cricket players...

The 2006 edition will have a questionaire on One-Day-International games ( ODI )...

The perfect companion for watching cricket everywhere.
This is a marvellous book which you can dip in to in between overs either watching at the ground or on tv.It answers all the questions stats freaks could ever want and resolves the disputes you have with your dad over who scored what when and where.Especially different is the section at the back on the stats of the tv and radio commentators which highlights that some of them such as David Lloyd had surprisingly poor careers and yet they happily criticise geniuses such as Graeme Hick.All in all a must have book for all cricket nuts like me.
