Why?
Well being KP probably just because he can.

Always In The Frame
Thank God for Ishant Sharma. Even when the weather is dodgy and the play is pedestrian you can always count on Sharma to take a photo worthy of playing with. The MCC members are always a great backdrop as well.
I think the reason Sharma takes such interesting pictures is that there are parts of his body that don't seem to be quite in sync with each other - I mean where does that right foot think it is going?

One May Be Enough
No equity on this blog. MS is so bright and positive in this image I couldn't bring myself to double up the image - just too scary.
It looks like he is very keen to get going at Lords. I for one am very keen to watch.

Buy This Bat Or ....
... I will kill you with it.
That seems to be the look Ian Bell, Adidas and the marketing people were going for in this shot.
Can any one suggest a wittier caption to promote the Adidas Incurza, or for that matter Ian Bell.

Living In The Past
It was Graham Yallop - I am sure you all knew that. Apparently the first man to wear The Helmet in an official test match. The local Aussies were so impressed they booed him to the crease. - fair go mate!
I can't shake the old photos , which is probably a commentary on what isn't happening at present.
So who is this brave soldier? And no, he wasn't part of the riot police social team.

Inscrutable Or Just Bloody Cold
The last of my 1946 retrospective. I would love to know what is going through Gul Mohamed's mind in this photo. There is definitely a touch of "what the hell am I doing here" in his eyes. Of course, 1946 was pre global warming.
India V The Counties
Original photo and commentary from Wisden via Cricinfo.
Against Sussex at Hove on July 29, 1946 the first four batsmen of the Indian team completed centuries. The board shows the position just before the fall of the third wicket. The players from left to right are: V. Mankad who scored 105, L. Amarnath (106), Nawab of Pataudi (110 not out), V. M. Merchant (205). The score-board was presented to Sussex by the most famous of all Indian cricketers, K. S. Ranjitsinhji.
