Simon Katich on the streaker who tried to steal his thunder

23-Nov-2009


Simon Katich: This happened in Christchurch, back in 2005. It was my first Test in a while, over four months, and I had just scored a hundred and was acknowledging the applause. I'm pretty sure my eyeline was aligned with the upper region, not the lower portion - as the picture probably suggests! In fact, I was shocked when the streaker came out. I couldn't believe someone else was trying to steal my thunder, trying to take away my moment. Photograph by Hamish Blair, Getty Images
