The official tour publication of the Bank Alfalah Cup one-day triangular involving Sri Lanka, Pakistan and New Zealand could easily rank as one of the best tour brochures put out by the Board of Control for Cricket in Sri Lanka (BCCSL) in a long time.

Published in collaboration with Wisden Cricinfo, this 60-page brochure is a quality production which could in the years to come turn out to be a collector's item. The pages are printed in fine art paper and the finish gives it a look of an international publication.

The entire issue is in complete colour from cover to cover and contains many feature articles written by some of the leading writers in the business.

The contributors include Mike Selvey, David Hopps, Marvan Atapattu, Rashid Latif, Lyn McConnell, Dileep Premachandran, Charlie Austin and Sa'adi Thawfeeq.

Austin, head of Wisden Cricinfo (Sri Lanka) has edited the publication which comprises a profile on Scott Styris, the New Zealand cricketer, tributes to Aravinda de Silva and Wasim Akram, interviews with Muttiah Muralitharan and Arjuna Ranatunga, a peep into the history of Sri Lankan captains since the first World Cup, and many more features which go to make this publication a must for any cricket lover.

Reasonably priced at Rs. 250/- it is available at leading bookshops and at the BCCSL headquarters, Maitland Place. - [S.T.]
