The Cricketer magazine, a 104-year-old monthly publication that has been edited by some of the game’s most notable grandees, is searching for a new owner.

The title was founded by the former England captain turned cricket writer Sir Pelham “Plum” Warner in 1921, who remained involved until his death in 1963. Other editors have included some of the best known names in cricket writing and broadcasting, including EW Swanton, Christopher Martin-Jenkins and David Frith.
