The last few years has seen no shortage of great cricketers who will live on in the memories and affections of cricket enthusiasts around the world. Christopher Martin-Jenkins has provided his personal comments to John Ireland's caricatures of some of the "characters" of recent years, not necessarily the greatest cricketers of their time but those who by their personalities have brought excitement to the game and enjoyment to the spectators. Umpires and commentators are also included in the persons of Dickie Bird and Brian Johnston, Richie Benaud and Swaroop Kishen.
