EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of triumph for Harry Wrathall and Jack Board, two tenacious Gloucestershire county cricketers, during their historic partnership at the 10th wicket against Surrey in 1899. With the scoreboard reading precariously low, these two determined sportsmen rallied together to make an impressive 106 runs, saving their team from an inevitable defeat. The late Victorian era, with its elegant pads and traditional bat design, is beautifully represented in this image. The lush, green grass pitch adds to the idyllic setting, as Wrathall and Board focus intently on their batting, their faces etched with determination and concentration. The 1890s were an era of great passion for cricket in England, and this photograph encapsulates the spirit of the game during that time. Wrathall, dressed in the iconic white cricket attire, and Board, with his distinctive moustache and cap, embody the essence of the sportsman and sportsmen of the era. This photograph is a testament to their resilience and skill, as they batted their way to a century, ensuring their team's victory and leaving a lasting legacy in the annals of Gloucestershire cricket history.
