The facial expressions suggest West Indies have won it, and the fact that this snap is of Learie Constantine, Frank Worrell and Ted Dexter suggests it's 1963, but that isn't the Wisden Trophy - does anyone recognise it?

The master and his apprentice at Scarborough in 1937 - Len Hutton was 21, so half the age of his opening partner, Herbert Sutcliffe

This, apparently, was the first time the WSC West Indians wore this salmon pink livery - it doesn't seem to have put off Lawrence 'Yagga' Rowe, which is doubtless why Kepler Wessels looks less than comfortable

I admit I spent an hour or so on the shed roof this afternoon, but I didn't do anything strenuous, pull a muscle or hurt myself in any way, so why has my entire body now stiffened up so much I am struggling to move?

Woeful stuff from Lancashire Cricket - much as I love watching the Championship on Youtube this is just too painful 😟

Denis Compton and Bill Edrich rewrote the record books in 1947, and England beat SAfrica 3-0, but the SA skipper Alan Melville was a stylish bat who made three centuries in the Tests - here he unfurls a classy shot as Godfrey Evans, Edrich and Len Hutton(?) look on

Hedley Verity, Herbert Sutcliffe and Maurice Leyland don't look particularly comfortable here - they're probably wondering why, unlike Bill Bowes, they came out of the pavilion first

A slide down a slippery slope or a last hurrah? Stephen Musk looks at the last tour of England by a team from Philadelphia CricketWeb @cricket_books cricketweb.net/books/the-forg…

And this is why Big Hubert, prowling the covers, was dubbed 'The Supercat' - by the next frame the ball would have been passing over the stumps

Fast bowlers have always like a good lbw appeal even if it has no merit - this is an impassioned Ray Lindwall in the 50/51 Ashes with an appeal that clearly doesn't impress teammate Ian Johnson and Don Tallon gives only token support to - the batsman is Godfrey Evans

In 1989 Fiery Fred organised a benefit for his old mate Brian Statham, who had fallen on hard times, at the Grosvenor Hotel in London - on the right is the programme for the evening, which you can see 'George' holding in the shot on the left.

Someone's in bother - I wonder who has caught the attention of Mikey and Big Hubert?

Sunday will see the last two Rosenwater reviews on CricketWeb, so Rameses will be happy - he may be more interested in a remarkable book from Sarastro Pitch Publishing 📚 Sports Books on the first lady professional cricketers and Cricket Bookseller latest, like the last about Philadelphia

For once BeefyBotham appears to be lost for words here, back in 1976 and receiving his Somerset cap from his skipper, the legendary Brian Close

Here's The Greatest!

He didn't do anything by halves

The supine batsman is David 'Bluey' Bairstow, doubtless reflecting on having been run out in the 1987 B&H Final against Northants - the inevitable disappointment would only have been temporary though, as although the scores ended level Yorkshire won by losing fewer wickets

The brothers Cowdrey batting together briefly during the B&H Final against Middlesex in 1986 - skipper Chris scored 19 while Graham top scored with 58 but, sadly for Kent, they ended up 2 runs short of Middlesex's total
