EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Colorsport Images, we are transported back to the historic 1930 Australia Tour of England during a thrilling cricket match between Worcestershire and the Australians. The focus of this image is none other than the legendary Australian wicket-keeper, William Bert Oldfield. Oldfield's presence on the field was truly remarkable, showcasing his exceptional skills and unwavering dedication to his team. However, it is impossible to discuss Oldfield's career without mentioning one fateful incident that forever changed his life. During the infamous Bodyline test in 1933 against England, Oldfield suffered a devastating blow when struck on the head by Harold Larwood's menacing delivery. The impact was so severe that it left him unconscious and resulted in a fractured skull. This incident not only highlighted the dangers faced by cricketers but also showcased their immense courage and resilience. Despite enduring such a traumatic experience, Oldfield remained an iconic figure in Australian cricket history. His contributions as both a player and later as an influential coach have left an indelible mark on the sport. This poignant print serves as a powerful reminder of both triumphs and challenges faced by athletes throughout their careers. It immortalizes Bert Oldfield's unwavering spirit while paying homage to his significant role in shaping cricket history.
