Who’s Who in World Cricket - Roy Webber

“Who’s Who in World Cricket” by Roy Webber, in its 1954 revised edition, is a comprehensive reference book. Spanning 192 pages, it features around 750 concise biographies of prominent figures across international cricket, extending beyond just players to include umpires, journalists, and officials. This updated version builds on the original 1952 edition by incorporating recent developments in the sport up to that time, such as player performances and records from the early 1950s, while maintaining a focus on providing essential personal and professional details for each. The book serves as a valuable directory for cricket enthusiasts, statisticians, and historians, distinguishing itself from earlier “Who’s Who” cricket publications by its broader inclusion of non-playing personalities and its emphasis on global coverage rather than being limited to specific regions or eras
