With its time-honored mixture of statistics and reports, accolades and unexpected happenings, Wisden assesses a year of controversy and achievement for men and women within the sport of cricket. This Millennium Wisden edition will feature a special section devoted to cricket in the twentieth-century. The highlight will be the selection and appreciation of Five Cricketers of the Century. Chosen by a panel of one-hundred cricketing experts, the names of the five will not be announced until publication. Also included, as a once-only offer, Wisden will be packaged with a free paperback book celebrating its publication in every year of the twentieth century, with an extract from every edition of Wisden from 1900 to 1999.
