General notes:
Photographer notations on slide: Fagg caught behind 1ST Innings. Eng v Vict at MCG Nov 1936 B113.Victorian batsman IAN LEE cuts a ball through a full slips cordon, bagging one of nine boundaries during his innings of 160 runs.The attacking field placements of four slips, a gully and a point indicate that midway through Victoria’s innings, the MCC bowlers continued to believe they could deceive Ian Lee the batsmen with flight through the air, or movement off the pitch, causing a snick behind the bat..This task was made all the more difficult, because Lee was left-handed, and his partner Gregory was a right-hander. Lee and Gregory’s record 4th wicket partnership of 262 runs in just over 180 minutes indicates the MCC did not succeed..Featured in "Newsworthy: Melbourne in photographs 1933-1936" exhibition at East Melbourne Library, October to December 2023.
