EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Bradley Ormesher, we are transported back to the South African third test match in July 1998. The image reveals a striking scene at Old Trafford, where cricket fans gather to witness the intense action unfold on the field. However, what immediately catches our attention is not the bustling crowds or enthusiastic supporters that one would typically expect at such an event. Instead, a sense of emptiness pervades the stadium stands as only a handful of dedicated spectators dot the vast space. This lack of interest can be attributed to South Africa's commanding innings total, which seemingly deterred many from attending. Despite this apparent absence of fervor among fans, it offers us a unique perspective into an unusual moment in cricket history. Ormesher's skillful composition and choice to capture this particular angle allows us to reflect upon how even in sports events renowned for their passionate following, there can be moments when external factors dampen enthusiasm. It serves as a reminder that every game has its ebbs and flows – both on and off the field. This remarkable photograph from Memory Lane Prints transports us back to an era when cricket was still evolving and captures an intriguing slice of sporting history that will undoubtedly intrigue any lover of English cricket during the 1990s.
