Incessant rain disrupted the start of play on day one of the second Test between England and New Zealand at Headingley in Leeds on Friday.
England fans have found their enthusiasm back after the side’s superb comeback in the first Test. This match hold great importance as it is the final Test of the tour and if England manages to draw the game they will end up as the winners as they lead the series by 1-0. New Zealand on the other hand will be desperate to seek revenge as they lost the first Test at Lord’s and will look forward to revival of fortunes and level the score between them.
Photographer Laurence Griffiths for Getty images captured a disappointing moment of an English fan, who waits patiently in the rain for the start of play. This picture is a testament of the fans dedication towards his team. In spite of heavy rains he is optimistic about the start of play and the above picture brings back the memories of the Kindergarten rhyme of little John who finds himself in a similar situation and prays hard for the ceaseless rain to go away.
