Information About

Indian Cricket (annual)




Indian Cricket is a cricket yearbook published by The Hindu .

It was founded in 1946 by the then sports editor of Hindu, S .K. Gurunathan . The recent editors have been S.Thyagarajan and G.Viswanath.

Indian Cricket is modelled after Wisden Cricketers' Almanack . It covers the Indian domestic cricket matches and matches played by India abroad. It also contains a small section on Test cricket abroad. Major cricket writers like Jack Fingleton and Norman Preston used to write in this section, but lately this includes only the scorecards.

From the inception, it carried a section on five ''cricketers of the year''. From 1952, there has also been a ''special portrait'' section which profiles an ex-cricketer.

The 2004 edition ran into 1240 pages. No editions of Indian Cricket came out in 2005 and 2006.
