EDITORS COMMENTS
This collection of photographs transports us back in time to the Scarborough Cricket Festival of September 1908. The images showcase the excitement and energy of a bygone era, as Lord Londesborough's England XI took on the might of the MCC Australian XI. Starting at the top left, we see the ornate Pavilion balcony window, shattered after one of J.N. Crawford's powerful shots. The window's broken state serves as a testament to the intensity of the match that unfolded below. Moving clockwise, we encounter Hayward and Spooner of the England XI deep in conversation, their focused expressions reflecting their determination to secure victory. In stark contrast, Hobbs and Gunn of the Australian XI are seen in a more relaxed pose, perhaps reflecting their confidence in their abilities. The crowd of spectators, a sea of hats and umbrellas, is a testament to the popularity of cricket during this period. Their rapt attention to the game is palpable, as they lean in, eager to witness every moment. At the head of the England XI, we see Leveson-Gower and H.H. the Jam Sahib (Ranjitsinghji) leading their team out onto the field. The regal presence of these esteemed gentlemen adds an air of grandeur to the proceedings. This series of photographs offers a unique glimpse into the history of cricket, providing a fascinating insight into the game as it was played over a century ago.
