OUR 2024/25 WISDEN - IT'S HERE NOW
The Moonee Valley 2024/25 Senior Wisden is out now, with hours of reading in the statistics, reviews and club facts contained in the 158 pages. There are plenty of photos too in a weighty document that chronicles our great club's past as well as our present, including details of the season just gone. Who scored centuries, what new records were set, who was honored for competition awards – it’s all there. The Moonee Valley Wisden has been compiled every season since 1983/84 and all the back issues are on our website at https://www.mooneevalleycricket.com.au/article/seniorwisdensandplayers - except for the 1986/87 edition, and anyone with a copy in their archives please contact me. On our website you can also find pdf versions of a lot of our old scorebooks – you can access them at https://www.mooneevalleycricket.com.au/events-and-dates.html so there’s plenty of reading there too. This year’s Wisden has a handy guide and index on Page 2, both for the 2024/25 document and for some past pages to access through the website. For a teaser on this year’s Wisden, have a look to find: * Which 12 players made the Wisden Team of the Year? (Hint: See Page 3) * Who was selected as captain of our Team of the Year? * Who was our leading wicket-taker in 2024/25? (Hint: See Page 34). And who had the best bowling average? * Who are the only three players in our history with a bowling average under 10 {minimum 30 wickets}? (Hint: See Page 140). *Only four players in our history have a batting average over 65? Two of them are still current players. (Hint: See Page 139). * Who were the three players who scored centuries in 2024/25? (Hint: See Page 20) * Who are the five players selected as a Moonee Valley Wisden Player of the Year six or more times? (Hint: See Pages 6). This information is all available - you just have to look. So start reading - here's the link Cheers, Charlie Walker, Editor, Moonee Valley Wisden
