Wisden 2019 charts the rise and rise of the England one-day team as they head towards a home World Cup in the summer. It also revisits the 1979 tournament, when England made it to the final, but lost out to Clive Lloyd's all-conquering West Indians.
This is Lawrence Booth's eighth year as Editor of Wisden, although he has contributed for many years. He is also cricket writer for the Daily Mail and author of several critically acclaimed cricket books. He is one of the most respected and well liked authorities in the modern game. @the_topspin

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
