The Complete Who’s Who of Test Cricketers is one of the most authoritative and widely respected reference works in cricket literature. Compiled by the late Christopher Martin-Jenkins, the book provides concise biographical entries for every player to have appeared in Test cricket up to its cut-off date, covering careers across all Test-playing nations.
Unlike purely statistical handbooks, Martin-Jenkins blends essential figures with informed commentary—summarising careers, roles, reputations, and historical context in a clear, balanced style that reflects his standing as one of cricket’s great broadcasters and writers. The result is a work valued equally by historians, collectors, journalists, and serious cricket followers.
This Revised Australian Edition incorporates updates and refinements to the original text, making it a particularly practical and sought-after working reference for Cricket book collectors.
