Howzat?!. We don't like cricket... we love it!
Howzat?! This cricket sculpture depicts the moment a flat-footed Australian batsman is deceived by the bowler as England win the Cricket World Cup. (Oh, sorry, we got a bit carried away there.) The installation, which also features metal fielders and even an umpire, is called 'The Spirit of Yorkshire' and can be found at Yorkshire Lavender, a 60-acre hillside farm just outside the village of Terrington in England. As the most successful county in English cricket history, Yorkshire is a fitting venue for the match.
