Who are the cricketing historians active today?

I'd like to make a list of cricket historians(noo, not the columnist or
statistician types but those with an archaeologist or sociologist
outlook) actively writing today.
Please correct me if someone is out of place.

Brian Stoddart
Gideon Haigh
Ramachandra Guha
Matthew Engel
Mike Marqusee
Richard Cashman

Would Michael Manley belong to this breed?

Also, is Cashman still writing?

Feel free to make additions, would be glad to check out those I missed
:)

David Frith
Mihir Bose

Boria Majumdar has been doing some decent research though his writing
style is a bit dry.
