Harold Larwood Bowling, 1933

Photograph of the English bowler, Harold Larwood, in action during the MCC tour of Australia, 1933. During that tour, D.R.

EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Harold Larwood in Action: The Controversial Bodyline Bowler of the 1933 MCC Tour to Australia" This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the intense focus and raw power of English cricketer Harold Larwood as he delivers a ball during the MCC (Marylebone Cricket Club) tour of Australia in 1933. Known for his lightning-fast pace and ability to generate significant bounce, Larwood was a formidable asset to the MCC team under the captaincy of Douglas Jardine. However, the 1933 tour is most infamous for the controversial tactic employed by Jardine – bodyline bowling, also known as leg theory. In an attempt to counteract the dominance of Australian batsmen, Jardine instructed Larwood and fellow fast bowler Bill Voce to aim their deliveries at the bodies of Australian batsmen, rather than the traditional line and length targeting the wicket. The tactic proved successful on the cricket field, with the MCC winning the series 4-1. However, it was met with widespread criticism and outrage from the Australian public, who considered it unsportsmanlike and dangerous. The bodyline controversy soured Anglo-Australian relations and led to numerous verbal and physical altercations between players and spectators. Despite the controversy, Larwood continued to be a prominent figure in English cricket, playing in the Ashes series of 1934 and 1938. His legacy remains a significant chapter in the history of cricket, with the bodyline controversy serving as a reminder of the passion and intensity that often underpins the sport. This photograph, taken during the height of the controversy, captures Larwood in his element, poised to deliver another potent ball. The image stands as a testament to the intense rivalry between England and Australia, as well as the enduring allure and drama of cricket.
