EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures a pivotal moment in the England v India 2nd Test Match at Old Trafford in 1946. The image, from The Northcliffe Collection, depicts the exciting moment when Indian cricketer D. D. Hindlekar successfully catches England's Cyril Washbrook during the game. The atmosphere is electric as Hindlekar leans forward, arms outstretched, ready to secure the catch in front of a packed Old Trafford crowd. Washbrook, looking surprised and disappointed, is frozen mid-stride as he realizes his innings has come to an end. The sun casts long shadows across the outfield, adding to the sense of drama and history in this timeless snapshot of cricket's rich past. The Northcliffe Collection, a treasure trove of historical photographs from The Mail Newspapers, offers a unique glimpse into the world of sport and the enduring legacy of cricket. This photograph is a testament to the skill, determination, and passion that define the game, and serves as a reminder of the thrilling matches and unforgettable moments that have shaped its history.
