Details

Dr. William Gilbert Grace (1848-1915), practising his batting in the nets at Lord's Cricket Ground, 1895. As can be seen, a large crowd has gathered to watch 'the Doctor's' technique. Arguably the finest cricketer of his era, Grace scored 126 first-class centuries while playing for England and Gloucestershire.
