EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Surrey Cricket Team in 1898, a time when the sport of cricket was at the height of its popularity in England during the late Victorian era. The team, dressed in their formal attire, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The eleven cricketers are seen posing confidently, each one wearing a striped blazer with the Surrey crest emblazoned on the left breast. Some opt for straw boaters as headgear, while others wear more traditional bowler hats or boaters with a narrow brim. The team's captain, likely standing in the center, wears a distinctive boater with a wide brim and a white band, signifying his leadership role. The players' serious expressions and focused gazes convey their dedication to the game, while their relaxed postures suggest an enjoyment of the camaraderie and team spirit that cricket fostered during this period. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when cricket was more than just a sport; it was a social activity that brought people together and provided a much-needed respite from the daily grind. The 1890s, with its sense of tradition and refinement, is beautifully encapsulated in this image of the Surrey Cricket Team, a testament to the enduring appeal of the game and the joy it brings to those who play it.
