Cricket for the Able-Bodied: An Unconventional Game of Pursuit and Skill (c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library This intriguing photograph captures the spirit of innovation and humor in the world of cricket during the late 19th or early 20th century. The image depicts an unusual yet entertaining take on the classic bat-and-ball game, with W.H. Robinson, a cricketer, employing a cannon and a motorbike to add a new dimension to the sport. Robinson, a man of extraordinary creativity, replaced the traditional cricket ball with a cannonball and used a cannon to hurl it towards the wicket. The batsman, undeterred and focused, prepares for the challenge with an unwavering determination. The presence of a motorbike in the scene suggests that the game might have taken place on a racecourse or a large open field, providing ample space for the high-speed action. The photograph, filled with historical charm, showcases the inventive nature of the British people and their ability to adapt and add a touch of humor to their favorite pastimes. The use of unconventional equipment, such as a cannon and a motorbike, adds an element of excitement and unpredictability to the game, making it a unique and memorable experience. This image is a testament to the enduring popularity of cricket and the creativity of its enthusiasts, who continue to push the boundaries of the game and explore new ways to enjoy it. The photograph, with its rich history and humorous undertones, remains an intriguing and captivating glimpse into the past, offering a fresh perspective on the world of cricket.
