Home > Wisden Cricketer of the Year
The Wisden Cricketers of the Year is an award given annually by the Wisden yearbook. Usually, five players are named each year, although this was not always the case in the early years - Jack Hobbs and W. G. Grace being among those to be honoured individually. Also, a player may receive the award only once in his career, although again this was not always the case in former years - Hobbs was named in both 1909 and 1926.List of Cricketers of the Year
