Wisden Cricket Monthly  |  February 2018
England’s record-breaking ODI opener Jason Roy takes the cover of issue 4 of Wisden Cricket Monthly, telling us that he is “ready for Test cricket”. The Surrey strokemaker is one of five exciting talents we pick out who can spark England’s Test team back to life after a miserable winter in Australia.
We also have an exclusive interview with Anya Shrubsole, as the World Cup-winning seamer relives that unforgettable day at Lord’s and reflects on the the life-changing impact it has had.
Elsewhere, regular columnist Kumar Sangakkara explains what made his former teammate Murali so special, on and off the pitch; Luke Alfred tracks down Wally Hammond’s children to reveal the untold story of the batting legend's melancholic later years in South Africa; Barry Richards looks back at the highs and lows of his extraordinary career; Tim Wigmore unravels the mysteries of the IPL auction; and John Stern meets Graeme Hick in Australia.
To round things off Felix White sits down with Geoffrey Boycott to discuss, among other things, the Yorkshireman’s sixth-sense, satnav voiceovers and Katy Perry’s Twitter following.
