Description
The Australian Imperial Forces XI cricket team come out to field at Bramall Lane, Sheffield at the start of their three day match with Yorkshire County Cricket Club. Identified second from right in cap and sweater is the AIF Captain, Herbert (Herbie) Leslie Collins, and fourth from right, Jack Morrison Gregory, whose fearsome right arm bowling was to do the most damage to Yorkshire. The AIF cricket team toured England between May and September 1919, playing 28 first-class matches after the First World War. The results and players names are inscribed on the reverse of the photograph. The names are also listed at D00685.
