EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the eleven players of the 200th Gentlemen and Players cricket match, an annual tradition that began in 1806. The Gentlemen, represented by the esteemed Hobbs (captain), Smith, Kilner, Mead, Tate, Hendren, Sutcliffe, Woolley, Parkin, Hearne, and Howell, were considered amateurs, while the Players were professionals. Despite their labels, the all-round standard of play was first-class. The image showcases a moment of anticipation on the lush, green cricket field. Hobbs, with his cap in hand, stands confidently as captain, while the other players prepare for the match. Smith, with his bat in hand, is focused on the wicket, ready for batting. Mead, in his pads and shin guards, is poised for bowling. The historical significance of this moment is palpable, as the tradition of Gentlemen and Players matches stretches back over two centuries. The 1920s, the era of this photograph, was an exciting time for cricket, with the sport gaining immense popularity. The players in this vignette embody the spirit of the game, with their determination and skill evident in their postures. The image is a testament to the rich history of cricket and the annual tradition of the Gentlemen and Players match, which continued until after 1962 when the amateur label was abolished.
