52, eh? It sounds like the distant relatives of Vaughan, Strauss, Cook and Collingwood were playing.

Because I was so alive at the time to see this!

One for the Australian Fans. MacDill bowling Podge in the Pura Cup NSW vs Victoria in 2008!

AJ Stewart. Talked about enough, but not his carefree batting without the gloves as an opener. Personally, I'd rather watch him open up on a fast deck against pace bowlers than most I've seen. His strokeplay is probably the most attractive I've ever seen. Used to pick up the length so quick. Can't be shown in stills but:



Cracking pull shot. That lifted leg provided perfect balance.



His stand up drive was one of his best shots.

Finally, there's the drive down on one knee. His trademark shot and aesthetically a cracker. Unforch there's not one to do him justice.

They probably aren't my favourite sporting pictures, but a few have gone.
