ACS Overseas First-Class Annual 2010

Acknowledgments I should like to put on record my gratitude to the many people that have contributed to this Annual. I have referred in the preface to the immense contribution of Peter Griffiths and Philip Bailey, who not only gave freely of their time and expertise but also allowed unlimited access to the compendious store of information located at CricketArchive (www.cricketarchive.com ), on which the scores in this book are based. I should also like to thank Robin Abrahams, Ghulam Mustafa Khan, Dinar Gupte, Francis Payne, Andrew Samson, Sohel Awrangzeb, Sudhir Vaidya, John Ward and Charlie Wat, for supplying the indispensable raw material of scores and much valuable supplementary material; the ACS Committee, for backing the project; Ric Finlay, for proofreading; Adam Frankowski for advice on West Indian grounds; Zahra Ridge, for providing the striking cover design; and of course my wife Deborah for her patience and forbearance.
