AMAZING CRICKET PICTURES

(1)Cricket Snapshot: Take that!



Matthew Hoggard gets drenched in water by and elephant, during his visit to a sanctuary today. Still, makes a change from Fred doing it with beer, like on most previous tours


(2)Cricket Snapshot: I think we could be in trouble here



Snap of the scoreboard illustrating just how deep in trouble South Africa were on the way to a comprehensive defeat to the Windies in today's Twenty20



(3)Cricket Snapshot: 400 up!



Gilly is so good with the bat that you sometimes forget that he also happens to be a bloody good keeper. Here is the moment he becomes only the second man to reach 400 test dismissals. Bonus question, who was the first?



(4)Cricket Snapshot: ANIL'S 600 up!



The legendary Anil Kumble joins the ranks of those other spinning legends by taking his 600th Test wicket in today's extraordinary day in Perth.


(5)Cricket Snapshot: "Say what?"



Harbhajan queries the detail of the comments from the crowd today at The Gabba


(6.)Cricket Snapshot: Mind your head



Brett Lee takes evasive action yesterday in the NSW vs Victoria Pura Cup match. Big crowd in isn't there?


(7.)Cricket Snapshot: The youngster



Lancashire's young prospect Oliver Newby displays a unique delivery stride. It didn't really help though as Surrey reached 537-5 at a packed Oval (!), with centuries for Ramps, Butcher and Usman.


(8.)SREESANT EMOTIONAL PICTURE




Obviously the crew at the Shed aren't the only souls upset at the closing of The Googly on the eve of the northern international summer. Sreesanth's pink Punjabi pyjamas has caused his feminine side to shine and upon hearing of the council decision to condemn, demolish and redevelop the dungeon he couldn't hold back the tears when his boyfriend told him the sad but inevitable news. 

I propose a last ditch caption contest for this photograph. Give us your best shot and celebrate what has been one of the funniest blogs in the English blogging pavilion.

At the Shed, we will be soldiering on at 99.94 with regular contributions from The Tooting Trumpet and if we win the lottery and hide his drumsticks, perhaps the esteemed editor of this publication too.

It's been a fun ride. I'm sure we'll all cross paths again. And anything that makes Sreesanth sook, in my book, can't be all bad!
