About Wisdens.org
I have been collecting Wisdens for a while now and in 2005 set up this Website to pass on my Wisden experiences, this site was the first ever created on the internet to explain about Wisdens to the masses and it is regularly updated with valuable statistics to help every Wisden collector when needed, to enhance their set. This site includes a popular discussion forum (wisdenclub.com) which has kept me entertained since '05. Over time we were offered Wisdens from members and also people asked if we had any spares to fill gaps in their sets. This led to our online Wisden Catalogue and this evolved into our sister site wisdenauction.com (see 2013 Wisden, pages 50/51), we improved the look and feel of this site in August 2013, Happy Collecting, Chris Ridler, Wisden Collector.

I am currently reading my set and pop notes into the www.wisdenauction.com newsletter, here is a snippet of the write up from 1873 : MCC vs Cambridge University on a sunny May 23rd & 24th, a ‚¬Å“venerable‚¬ match where Dale scored 123 for MCC out of 234. Cambridge scored just 44 in reply (Sham 12-4 off 21 overs) , Mr Fryer scored 61 in their second innings one of the 4s (not sure why just 4) smashing the pavilion window. Once he was out Farrands performed ‚¬Å“The Hat Feat‚¬ , 3 in 3 all bowled. Mr Thornton with a ‚¬Å“bailer‚¬ , MCC won by an innings and 35 runs. MCC vs Yorkshire May 27/28th, Very Sunny and very enjoyable game , they started at 12.12 , Ended at 6.25 and had ‚¬Å“dinner‚¬ at 2:30 , mainly so some could ‚¬Å“do the derby‚¬, Wisden notes how Grace was dropped by Iddison because he didn‚¬„¢t realise Emmett had started his over and while the ball was in the air to him, he was still giving directions to long leg, ‚¬Å“The Crack‚¬ was bowled by an Iddison lob for 101 (out of 215) ‚¬€œ Moiety used again along with Yardley being a ‚¬Å“Coadjutor‚¬ to Grace. Grace‚¬„¢s fielding to the hot ones was well worth the 20 mile journey to watch the match. Yorkshire scored 96&200 and Grace onslaught won the game for the MCC , with 83-2. : Please contact us for the full write up.
