by Alan Rowley, 16th April 2004

Wisden takes a giant leap forward in 2004. The 141st edition of Wisden introduces a range of new features designed to make sense of the cricketing year in a world where England players are branded pathetic losers one week and comeback heroes the next.

It also includes full profiles of the leading players in England and abroad and for the first time - in addition to the traditional Five Cricketers of the Year - will reveal the name of the world's No. 1 player. Wisden 2004 asks England cricketers and footballers who really has the better life, pay affectionate tribute to Sussex, champions at last, and take a nostalgic look at the genteel world of country house cricket.

More up-to-date than ever before, Wisden includes full coverage of all the major cricket in 2003. It also tries to answer the one cricketing question that has never been in Wisden before: What is cricket, exactly?
