EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in the history of cricket, as Australian cricketing legend Don Bradman is bowled out by English bowler Hedley Verity at Lord's Cricket Ground in London during the 1938 Ashes Test Match. The image, taken in the heart of the 1930s, depicts Bradman in his prime, with his signature crouched stance and intense focus, as Verity delivers the ball. In the background, Australian wicket-keeper Sammy Ames can be seen in a defensive stance, ready to receive the ball and break the stumps if necessary. The atmosphere at Lord's that day was electric, as the Ashes series was hotly contested between the two cricket powerhouses, Australia and England. The war clouds were gathering in Europe, and this Test Match was one of the last major sporting events before the outbreak of World War II. The image captures the intensity and drama of the game, as well as the unique character and charm of the 1930s. The photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of cricket and the iconic status of Don Bradman, who remains one of the greatest cricketers of all time.
