A good game of Cricket

A while back I took a shot of the cricket field in Victoria Park. I have been hoping to catch a game that I could get a few shots of.
Well today we decided to go for a walk and I discovered that there was a game going on. Unfortunately with only my point and shoot in hand it was hard to get a really good shot. So took a few and decided to go with this one.
Even though I have never played the game and I really do not understand it I did find it fun to watch.
So to all your cricket fans this one is for you. For the rest of us the park does provide some nice scenery

Nice day to be in the park. It has become so hot & muggy this afternoon I'd hate to be running around. Good shot of the players. Have a good week!

[Wendy Bowden]

Terrific capture, love playing back yard cricket

[Brian Baptie]

Us Aussies love our cricket!!

[Netkonnexion]

Cool. I am not a cricket fan either. But I love a good park scene. Its great to see people enjoying a green park. Lovely shot. A nice open vista.

[Kerri]

Beautiful

When I first looked at the picture I thought it was a baseball game :) I don't know anything about cricket, but it looks fun. I love baseball.

[Vicki Dixon]

I have never seen it played...nice to see it!

[❀ Lynn]

Wow, that lawn looks perfect. It's always nice to see people outside in the summer, enjoying the weather.

Brian, am I correct that this is Edmonton in Canada ?? What are they doing playing cricket ?? Nice game to take photos, lots of time between actions 8-)

[jerry plume]

Looks like fun!

[Mrs. Smith]

How interesting! It's a game that I've never watched.

[bkb in the city]

@ladyjane Well it was a wonderful day for a game and the park is nice and green since all of our rain we have had here

[bkb in the city]

@tonydebont Yes this is Edmonton Canada. I guess the criket comes from our English heritage. We have had a cricket club here for over 100 years

[bkb in the city]

@orangecrush Well it sounded like they wer having a good time

[bkb in the city]

@cimes1 Well the cricket here I am sure is due to our british heritage here in Canada

@bkbinthecity Well there you go Brian, I can't claim to be a sports nut but didn't associate Canada with cricket.

[Ann H. LeFevre]
