The Cricketer Magazine | December 2024
The Christmas issue of The Cricketer magazine (December 2024) has landed… and it is also a Joe Root special!
It has a wonderful cover by the gifted illustrator Nick Newman… he imagines what would happen if England’s greatest Test run-scorer visited Santa’s grotto.
Also this Christmas, it’s time to ask… Have Bazball tactics given the opposition too many gifts? Has Brendon McCullum had an epiphany? Is what he says gospel? Can England get back to the top of the tree again? Would winning next winter’s Ashes be a miracle?
In the Roooooot package…
• Simon Barnes on “as fine a player as the world has seen, and so nice with it”
• David Hopps says Root is a cert to be in the pantheon of the White Rose county’s finest
• Rob Smyth recalls Root’s incredible knocks across the globe
• Tim Wigmore says Joe Root is still some way behind Jack Hobbs
Also in the issue:
• George Dobell slams the dereliction of county cricket by England’s selectors
• Sir Richard Hadlee gives his verdict on Bazball
• Huw Turbervill previews the New Zealand v England Test series
• Jarrod Kimber analyses how India were knocked off their perch by New Zealand
• David Gower was astounded by what he saw on and off the field in Pakistan
• Mike Brearley hails the cricket-mad Shatila refugee camp in South Beirut
• The Women’s T20 World Cup is reviewed by Cameron Ponsonby and Nick Friend
