First there was Merlin. More recently there's been Gandalf and Harry Potter. And now there's the Wisden Wizard, who has kindly put astral pleasures aside and decided to concentrate on working out cricket statistics. The Wisden Wizard weaves his spell in areas other search engines can't reach - working out records and averages for individual grounds and teams, as well as answering almost any player query you can think of. Click here for the introduction page and some examples of the Wizard's magic.

You can ask questions about Test cricket or one-day internationals - or even both (Sachin Tendulkar has hit 62 centuries in all international cricket, but who's second with 38?) Once the Wizard has come up with the answer, you can click the "investigate" button and find out more about a specific player or performance.

We hope you'll have a good time finding out what the Wizard can do. And if you find something he can't manage - and even he is limited to some extent, by scorecard information - please let us know, using our feedback mechanism, and we'll see if your query is possible.
