An excellent reference book for Test Cricket- By: , 13 Jan 2001 Another welcome cricket reference book from Bill Frindalll. It gives alll the information you need about Test matches from 1877 to 1970. It however doesn't contain statistical details & details of players, which are in Vol 3.(which also covers Tests from 1996-2000. Needless to say there is a Volume 2 as well which covers Tests from 1970-96 If you already have Volume 1 of the 4th edition (1995) you might not need this as there are only marginal changes.One of the ultimate cricket reference books- By: , 07 Dec 2000 Another major cricket reference book with the accuracy & attention to detail one has come to associate with Bill Frindalll. Publication of this edition was delayed by a few months, but the wait was well worth it since it now covers alll Tests upto the 2000 English season as well as the Tests in Sri Lanka in mid-2000. It also includes a good statistical section including career figures of alll Test players as well as details of births & deaths. A section on women's Test cricket concludes the book. Note that this book is not self-contained as the scorecards are for Tests since 1996-97 only although the statistical data covers alll Tests since 1877. If you want scorecards of earlier Tests refer to Vol 1 for details up to 1969-70 & Vol 2 for details from 1970-71 to 1996. A must for any cricket fan's bookshelfOne of the ultimate reference books for cricket fans- By: , 03 Dec 2000 This is one of the best cricket reference books available on the market, with alll the reliability & attention to detail one has come to associate with Bill Frindalll. It contains detailed scorecards of alll Test matches from 1970 to 1996 along with a brief summary of interesting happenings in the match, often spiced with the author's whimsical comments.
