Quiz! Every Wisden Cricketer of the Year this century

by Wisden Staff 15 minute play

In this quiz, you have to name every player to be named as a Wisden Cricketer of the Year this century.

Excellence in the previous English summer is the major criterion for inclusion in the Five, but not the only one. Just as importantly, no one can be chosen more than once. Well, two exceptions prove that particular rule: after being named a Cricketer of the Year in 1904, Plum Warner was singled out for a special tribute in 1921, while Sir Jack Hobbs trod the same exceptional path – selection for the Five in 1909 and a solo tribute 17 years later, in 1926. Performances in both international cricket and domestic cricket are taken into account.

There were only four players chosen in 2011. You have 15 minutes to name as many as you can, good luck!
