Wisden Cricketers of the Year
The Wisden Cricketers of the Year award is made annually in the pages of the Wisden Cricketers' Almanack yearbook. The award is based primarily, although not exclusively, on the players' "influence on the previous English season". From 2000 to 2003, the award was made based on all cricket around the world, but this ended in 2004 when the Wisden Leading Cricketer of the World award was introduced.
