Chelmsford: before the start of play
Image: © John Sutton Taken: 23 May 2012
Essex and Derbyshire players had just finished their pre-match warm-ups and the ground staff were starting to take down the practice nets about ten minutes before the start of play on the first day of the County Championship match. The sun had yet to break through low cloud on what was later a very hot and sunny day (one Derbyshire had the better of).
