Tait (masseur). Their determined expressions foreshadow the intensity that will soon unfold on the pitch. Seated in front of them is an iconic lineup that includes legends of the sport: Jim Laker, Peter May - both renowned for their exceptional skills with bat and ball - Stuart Surridge exuding leadership qualities as captain of the team.
