I'm sure that one of the balls in the other pics could be added to this one to round it off.

A good set, mixed bag with some excellent ones, a couple less so. The second one is very good as is number 4. The last couple are good too and that bowled shot is superb as far as you the photographer are concerned. Just a shame it had to have that pink blob in the background which distracts, nothing you cold do about it, just the way it goes.

Overall, an excellent set of pics of our national game.
Cheers,
Rob

It has just occured to me that our American friends (Skip!) won't have a clue how to play this game so here is a quick explanation for you....

You have two teams of eleven players.
One team is in, the other team is out.
Two members of the out team come in and have to be got out by the team that is in.
When one member of the out team has come in and been got out by the team that is in, he goes out and another member of the out team comes in.
When all of the out team have come in and been got out by the team that is in, the team that was in goes out and team that was out comes in.
The repeat all of the above.
When they have finished, the team with the highest score wins....

Unless after 5 days of trying, they have not got to the end in which case we call it a draw :o)

Hope that has made it all clear for you.
Cheers,
Rob

Thank's Steve, 200 with 1.4 will still be a bit short i used to have a 300F4 (now in Northern Ireland) and used a 1.4 on my 10D and that was still a bit short, Get posting those shots you took and we can have a cricket forum

[Steve400]

haha aye, a cricket forum is whats needed on this site!! lol

if i can flog the 200mm off to someone else i would be very keen to get a 300mm of some shape or form but at the minute i cant afford one!

i will post a shot soon! i was too busy shouting and laughing to get many shots, a lot of them got deleted too!!

I sold my 300mmF4 for £380 non IS, the non IS is sharper than the IS model and cheaper
