Wisden Cricketers' Almanack, or simply Wisden, colloquially the Bible of Cricket, is a cricket reference book published annually in the United Kingdom.[1] The description "Bible of cricket" (or variations thereof) has been applied to Wisden since the early 1900s.[2][3][4]
Between 1998 and 2005, an Australian edition of Wisden was published.[5] An Indian version, edited by Suresh Menon, was produced annually from 2013 to 2018,[6] but discontinued following the publication of a combined 2019 and 2020 issue.[7][8][9]

'Wisden', the cricketer's Bible, waxes very enthusiastic over Trumper in this year's almanac.

The annual Bible of cricketers is certainly the Wisden's Cricketer's Almanack.

Capt. P. F. Warner proposed Wisden's in interesting terms [...] He referred to the pleasure he, like others, had derived from perusing the pages of the 'Bible of Cricket', the memories its pages conjured up.
