Farokh Engineer caught by Keith Stackpole off the bowling of Graham McKenzie on the opening day of the Calcutta Test in December 1969. In a magnificent spell of fast bowling, McKenzie ripped through the Indian batting, finishing with figures of 6 for 67 from 33.4 overs.

One of my abiding memories of Tony Greig was his close fielding to the bowling of Derek Underwood in 1974. With his long reach, he almost seemed about to pluck the ball off the face of the bat. Here in the 3rd Test v India he is right in SS Naik's eyeline as Underwood bowls

1988 - A smile shared after one of county cricket's greatest innings. Graeme Hick celebrates his unbeaten 405 n.o against Somerset with his Worcestershire teammates Gordon Lord, Tim Curtis, captain Phil Neale and Richard Illingworth. #Cricket#CricketTwitter
Another cleaned/restored picture I took ... this is (I think) India opener Ghulam Parkar being bowled by Bob Willis for 1, England v India, 1st Test, Lord's, June 12th 1982. Willis took 6 for 101 in India's second innings setting up a seven wicket win. Parkar scored 6 and 1 in his only Test appearance. Phil Edmonds is a forward short leg.
A lovely shot of the view from the scorers box in the Grandstand at Lord's, August 1946. The phone was to enable contact with the scorebox and the printing office below them. The printing office boasted at producing cards up to the fall of the last wicket (Picture Post)
