In the new issue of Wisden Cricket Monthly, out July 11, we mark England’s Test series against West Indies by celebrating the titanic rivalry between the two sides.

We look forward to this summer’s contest by speaking to Jamie Smith, England’s exciting new keeper-bat, and Jayden Seales, the Windies’ returning fast-bowling sensation, and hear from Andre Coley, the visitors’ head coach, about the new generation of batting talent and Phil Walker about the hosts’ new quicks.

There’s also a nod to past battles, with Daniel Norcross taking us back to the famous ‘Blackwash’ series of 1984 and the one and only Brian Lara remembering the day he broke Sobers’ record for the highest Test score.

Elsewhere, Eoin Morgan tells Mel Farrell that England should keep faith in Jos Buttler and Matthew Mott despite an underwhelming T20 World Cup campaign, Lawrence Booth considers where it went wrong for Buttler’s side, and Andrew Miller reflects on what India’s triumph means for the wider game.

There’s news from all 18 counties in ’The County Files’, columnist Mark Ramprakash argues the Blast is suffering from years of neglect, and Rob Smyth dives deep into the CricViz database to pick out some cricketers who had unexpectedly brilliant Test records against the world’s best.

We also hear from John Morris about the Tiger Moth episode which changed his life, Dominic Cork recalls the defining moments of his career, Oliver Price looks back on Ted Dexter’s ill-fated attempt to become a Tory MP, and Scott Oliver examines why the price of cricket bats has soared. And, finally, in a new series looking at how the game is tackling the climate crisis, Jo Harman examines the steps being taken at Lord’s.
