I’m never terribly sure why anyone reviews the annual edition of this book. Everyone knows what it is, and how it’s laid out (notes from the author, articles from the great and good about certain cricketing topics, followed by page after page of statistics on the English and International cricket in the 2020-21 cricket year). This year is no different.
You’re a certain type of collector/stats nerd if you buy and/or read this book. You’ll enjoy this as a stats nerd if you’re said stats nerd. If you’ve read previous editions before, and enjoyed them, you’ll enjoy this book. If you’re starting out on your cricketing journey, it’s expensive, perhaps have a skim through it first to see if it’s really for your cup of tea.
