14 A game of cricket

Melbourne, Australia

I think the way he threw the ball is called spinning.

Another capture just before he let the ball loose

Canon EOS 40D
1/400s f/7.1 at 300.0mm iso160 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Wonderful action shot Mieke. We have several clubs where cricket is played.

A film was made here and it features that unknow game. The film was a success and very funny, so now I know a few things about the game, 1st, dont draw the lines when its very windy!

Nice action but a game I am completely ignorant of.

Fun game, I have no idea about it, but so cool!

How funny, it looks like he will topple over!

You're right, he looks like a spinner, but it's called bowling, not throwing.
Great timing to get the ball in the air and its nice to be reminded of what happens in summer, it seems such a long way away.
