EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Cape Team of Cricketers as they prepare to begin play on 21 May at Sheffield Park. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image is a testament to the rich history of cricket and its global reach. The team, led by their captain C. Mills, stands proudly in their uniforms, ready for action. The group shots showcase each member's determination and passion for the sport. From D. C. Parkin to G. Cripps, H. H. Castens to T. Routledge, every player exudes confidence and camaraderie. The manager oversees his team with a watchful eye while ensuring that everything runs smoothly on match day. As spectators eagerly await the first ball being bowled, these cricketers are focused on giving their best performance. The composition of this photograph highlights not only the players but also the beauty of Sheffield Park itself - a picturesque setting for such an important event in cricketing history. With names like G. S Kempis, L. C Johnston, A. W Seccull, F Hearne among others gracing this lineup, it is clear that this Cape Team possesses exceptional talent and skill. Preserved in a private collection until now, this image allows us to step back in time and appreciate both the artistry of photography from that era and the enduring spirit of sportsmanship embodied by these cricketers.
