EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Thrilling Moment in County Cricket: Gover of Surrey Takes a Wicket at The Oval, 1939 2. Description: This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the intensity and excitement of a County Cricket Match at The Oval in 1939. The image focuses on a pivotal moment in the game, as Surrey cricketer Alf Gover (wearing the distinctive Surrey cap) triumphantly raises his arms in celebration after taking a wicket. The batsman, with a dejected expression, has been dismissed, caught behind by the wicket-keeper, who is seen in the foreground, poised to remove the bails. The umpire, in the background, has raised his finger to signal the dismissal. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and drama, as the slips fielders eagerly await the next delivery. The pitch, dotted with cracks and pockmarks, bears testament to the hard-fought battle between bat and ball. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of County Cricket in the 1930s, a time when the sport captivated the hearts and minds of the British public. 3.
