In this print by Williams Jeremy, we are transported back to June 1997 at Edgbaston, where the first Test Match between England and Australia took place. The image captures a moment of sheer jubilation as Mike Atherton, the English captain, celebrates their hard-fought victory. Atherton's face is illuminated with pure joy and relief as he raises his arms triumphantly towards the sky. It is evident that this win holds immense significance for him and his team. Perhaps it was a crucial turning point in the series or a testament to their unwavering determination on home soil. The atmosphere surrounding this historic match can almost be felt through the photograph itself. The crowd's roar echoes in our minds as we witness Atherton basking in the adulation of thousands of passionate cricket fans who have witnessed an unforgettable battle unfold before them.
