Resource Every Australian domestic one-day cricket uniform ever – in photo form

[Gibbsy]

A very good read, with thanks to Australia's best and most underrated sporting journalist Russell "Rusty" Jackson. Clearly another aficionado of the humble kit.

Set aside 15 minutes to have a look through it all and marvel. Of course, the light bulb in my brain went off thinking that these could be made up in Illustrator and turned into a website, but with the CLFJ Project and KitsDownUnder both currently in the making, it might have to go on the backburner...

P.S. – Here's the best photo of the lot if it's all a bit TL;DR for you, the great man Swervin' Mervyn during the twilight of his career at the Canberra Comets.

I played footy with Merv's kids at the local Vic Footy clinic. His kids go for the Western Bulldogs, and o still got a photo of the group, with Merv in it as well.

I long for the days of the ING Cup, where the batsmen would win $50,000 if they were lucky enough to hit one of those white signs placed between the boundary and the fence.
