i think this pic has not scored as it deserved probably because a large number of voters are from US and Europe and they lack in knowledge about cricket. For them its difficult to appreciate this.
This looks like a great Aussie cricket photo! Well captured and well timed. The colours are great and you've framed perfectly to the action. Good work!
From your title I was looking for a ball on the ground. To my untrained eyes it looks like he has caught it. I like the green field against the white uniforms. The background G10 wall/line is a bit distracting, but I know that couldn't be helped.
7 - Good .. 'catch'. Color is good. Criticism; difficult, but more detail would have made this better but obviously camera/lens dependent. Depending what you had to work with, perhaps a nudge rotation up on the left and a crop trying to gain more symmetry and get the boundary line 'level', may have made this even better in my opinion. Not sure on the frame, 'works', but at this size perhaps is a little too dominant, again, in my opinion.
