In 1962 the Playfair titles were acquired by Dickens Press which had just published The Cricket Annual, edited by Roy Webber. It is set to be a titanic and entertaining battle, with Australia looking a formidable outfit with few weaknesses.

Therefore, the 2013 edition is the 66th in total, but the annual has been published in its current compact size only since the 1963 edition (the 16th). A few days ago, England fell an agonising two runs short of recording a unique winter clean sweep of five Test victories out of five, losing to New Zealand in Wellington by one run.

Its main purposes are to review the previous English season and to provide detailed career records and potted biographies of current players.

Others have included Playfair Football Annual, Playfair Rugby League Annual and Playfair Racing Annual.There is a popular myth that this "honour" has a "hex" [1] or "curse" [2] associated with it, as the player featured then invariably has a poor season. The Playfair Cricket Annual is one of a series of similar pocket sized sporting annuals published under the Playfair name. Since the first compact edition of 1963, the core of the publication has been a section providing a county by county list of current cricketers with potted biographies, their county averages in the previous season together with some introductory notes on the county and the major county records.

During his 30-year publishing career, he has worked with some of cricket's greatest players, including Mike Atherton, Sir Ian Botham, Geoffrey Boycott, Stuart Broad, David Gower, Justin Langer, Dennis Lillee and Sir Garry Sobers. From 1950 to 1962 the annual produced a list of its Eleven Cricketers of the Year for the previous season. At all levels of the game, cricket really does rely on such people to ensure it functions as well as it does. There are also sections on women's cricket and the major domestic T20 competitions from around the world, including The Hundred. Tests (NZ): 94 (2007-08 to 2022-23, 6 as captain); HS 77* v E (Napier) 2007-08 – on debut; BB 7-64 v I (Bangalore) 2012.Like the team of a decade ago, newcomers settle in and perform well immediately: Harry Brook, Matty Potts and record-breaking youngster Rehan Ahmed have all looked at home from the start.

The 2010 edition overturned Frindall's long-held view that the match between Australia and an ICC World XI in 2005/06 should not be regarded as a Test Match and now includes it in its Test record section. To my mind, the debate about England’s greatest all-rounder in my lifetime is now settled in his favour.Tony has been a great help and supporter of Playfair, so I want to both acknowledge his largely unsung work here and to wish him a long and happy retirement. As one of the leading statistical cricket publications, Playfair has to take a view on the status of Test, One Day International, first-class and domestic one-day (i.
