I rather suspect that most people (it not all) know what they think about this book before they read the reviews here, but here goes...
This book looks at the year in world cricket that was 2015, with a particularly English focus on things, and the English Season in particular. It has all the usual content you find in a Wisden, five criketers of the year, details of county games, one day tournaments there, and test matches and the like, and opinion pieces about how the game has progressed over the past year.
If you're stats minded and are the sort who'll want to refer back to what happened in a game, a player or a season in the future, I think this is book is for you. It gives you a good sense of what 2016 was like in cricket.
