too much of the person catching the ball is cropped off--especially since he is the focus of it being the end.

You know, many people who do not understand the game of cricket will not truly appreciate the gem of a photo this is. Not only capturing the positions of the batsman and keeper in action but to photograph the ball dislodging the bails while following straight on into the keeper's gloves is a rare and brilliantly captured combination. Meets the challenge 100% and gets a 10 from me!
