About this Item

'The late withdrawal of key (Indian) players . greatly weakened its side. The strength of Australian cricket at this time further unbalanced the contest, resulting in a 4-0 thrashing in the series' (Webster). This is hardly surprising, considering that ALL of the Australians in this particular team went on the 1948 Invincibles tour. A newspaper cartoon relating to the match is mounted on the verso of the leaf; apart from a little cockling (due to an excess of paste), the photograph is in fine condition. Seller Inventory # 55445
