Customer Reviews
59 not out - Rated As 'Playfair' closes in on its diamond jubilee, it still puzzles me that this wonderful little annual is so often considered as a 'Poor Man's Wisden'. I have always found that both are essential for any cricket fan. Whilst Wisden's timeless Almanac is the last word in any discussion, and offers in-depth analysis of the season, Playfair serves to be the perfect companion for those who want easy access to statistics, records, and fixtures; and it is in this right where the book is untouchable. By all means have Wisden on your shelves at home - it serves as a peerless commentary of the summer sport and makes a wonderful reference book for delving into cricket's past and present. Playfair on the other hand should be kept at your side, slipped into a back pocket and accompanying you to Test matches when all those little queries arise. It really is the essential companion for the season - you will be reaching for it with satisfying regularity! Fully updated to include in-depth analysis of England's unforgettable Ashes victory, as well as the recent winter tour, and a preview of the 2007 World Cup. Selective Stats - Rated A very successful idea in a convenient size, but Frindall has cost his book the total respect it deserves by his unilateral refusal to recognise the ICC World XI games. Until he realises that he is not the owner of the cricket roll of honour, merely the messenger, any users of the book will find their data a wee bit adrift from the figures used by the players, the ICC, the press and even TMS.
