The weather here forced the abandonment of Pakistan v Sri Lanka World Cup match on Friday. It has also left highly-acclaimed cricket photographer Patrick Eagar, 75, a bit disappointed. He was hoping to watch some cricket on his prized possession — the new Sky Sports network device.
"I never had this before," he says, pointing to a remote on the centre table when mid-day paid a visit to his home in Richmond, a quaint and affluent area in South London. Eagar retired as a freelance photographer after the India v England Test (his 300th) in 2011, but the veteran photographer still has an eye for the game.
