Wisden Cricket Monthly Magazine Issue 85 Back Issue

English
115 Reviews   •  English   •   Sport (Cricket & Golf)
Only $6.99
We have something a little bit special in the latest issue of Wisden Cricket Monthly, out February 27, as we reveal our countdown of the 100 hundreds that changed the game, and a few that changed the world...

A selection of the game’s best writers tell the stories behind a century of centuries spanning more than 250 years which left an indelible mark on an ever-evolving sport and, in some instances, sparked social or political change.

Elsewhere in the magazine, Brydon Carse talks to Jo Harman about the ban which led to his emergence as a leading figure for England, Temba Bavuma opens up to Mel Farrell about his incredible personal journey and South Africa’s run to the World Test Championship final, and Katya Witney explores the challenges of being both a mother and professional cricketer.

In a jam-packed issue which also includes a beautifully designed wallchart with all the fixtures for the 2025 English season, Adam Hollioake tells Sam Dalling why he couldn’t resist his new role at Kent, Graham Onions reflects on his wicket-laden career, and we unpick England’s miserable Women’s Ashes series in Australia.

As for our columnists, Lawrence Booth analyses the eye-popping Hundred auction, Andrew Miller says the SA20 has been an unexpected winter highlight, and guest writer Nathan Johns sets out his vision for a more inclusive World Test Championship.

Wisden Cricket Monthly has returned to the newsstand as a fresh, contemporary magazine from the most trusted name in cricket writing.


Wisden’s famous yellow book, the Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack, continues to set the standard for insightful writing and comprehensive coverage of the game, and Wisden Cricket Monthly will show a similar commitment to covering, analysing and celebrating the game in all its forms.


Every issue features big-name interviews and columnists, original and entertaining features, and extensive coverage of international, county and club cricket, as well as coaching tips, book reviews and competitions. 


The magazine is edited by Phil Walker and Jo Harman, both formerly of All Out Cricket, supported by editor-at-large, John Stern, and an editorial board of journalists, broadcasters and former players including David 'Bumble' Lloyd' and Almanack editor Lawrence Booth.


Subscribing to the digital version of Wisden Cricket Monthly is the cheapest and easiest way to read the very best cricket writing wherever you are.
