Marlon Samuels loses his head

By Will 2 years ago, mid-January Add your comment below

Is Marlon Samuels finally growing up? I’m not so sure. It was a wonderful innings, his hundred against South Africa today, but all too often he nibbles and pokes at those decent deliveries outside his off stump. I admired his determination, and his coolness under raging pressure from Dale Steyn. The ball he fell to was spectacular, and I can’t remember seeing a better one. It was one for the memories.

Anyway, we have a photographer at the ground, Neil Lane, who’s been providing us with some excellent (and occasioanlly lewd) shots, including this one of Samuels ducking. Where’s his head gone?

The standard of photography from the agencies – Getty Images use Gallo Sports, Touchline and AFP – has been generally weak for the entire series. Neil’s, on the other hand, are crisp and inventive.

    Looks like a light-sabre accident to me :)
