This question is mainly for the true romantics of cricket, who live by each ball and enjoy the nuances more than the results.

My personal choice woulde be: A fast bowler running in over the wicket, delivers a vicious short ball just outside the off stump to a right hander, a sharp lateral movement resulting in an edge caught at first slip.

These are my favorite sights on a cricket field:
  • Flying Fielders:
Can you guess who’s the fielder in below image?
Jonty Rhodes (The Man who re-defined the art of fielding)
Girls have reservation in this category too.
  • Shattered Stumps:
  • Broken Bats:
  • TradeMark Shots:
Sachin’s Straight Drive:
  • Rahul Dravid’s Front Foot Defence
  • Ricky Ponting’s Pull shot:
  • Dilshan’s DilScoop:
  • Kevin Pietersen’s Switch Shot:
  • Sangakkara’s Cover Drive:
  • Rahul Dravid’s Cut Shots against spinners:
  • Sehwag’s Upper Cut(for first ball six/four):
  • MS Dhoni’s Helicopter Shot:
  • Last Minute Thrillers:
One of the thrilling Ashes Rivalries:
  • T20 WC 2007:
  • Ind vs Ban - 2016 T20 WC Match:
  • SA vs NZ - WC Semi Final
  • WI vs ENG - 2016 T20I WC final
  • Gentleman Moments:
Last but not least, these pictures depict/derive that Cricket is still a gentleman’s game.
After NZ win 2015 WC Semi-Final(Read the statement given by Steyn):
  • Flintoff consoling Brett Lee after Ausis lost one of the Ashes tests:
  • When Raina tied shoe-lace of DJ Bravo:
  • When Trott ran towards Dravid, took his cap off and shook hand with him on Dravid’s last ODI:
  • When Ponting said to Dravid, ”Don't let them wear you down, don't let them get you down.”
  • Picture says it all:
  • Sangakkara silently clapping, smiling after India winning the 2011 WC Final
  • When whole Australian Team checked on Virat after hit by a bouncer on helmet and suggested M.Johnson not to bowl bouncers anymore.(Because, the bouncers are not the same any more.)
  • Gayle bowing down to ABD after his fastest ODI century:
  • Dhoni helping out Faf du plessis:
  • Irfan Pathan consoling Pollard after WI loss:
  • Jonty Rhodes with Ground staff:
  • Guard of honours to legends:
Great umpires deserve this thing as well.
I have put an effort of 2 hours in compiling this answer with all the pictures I wanted to mention.
And answering questions in lengthy fashion doesn’t always mean getting upvotes/views, it’s all about passion, respect towards cricket.

Why most Indian women wear white bras? cant see many varieties of bras in Indian market like in US. Robert Bellarmine Lopez , lives in Tirupur, Tamil Nadu, India Written 5h ago An inner wear which is in constant touch with the body-line should be soothing to the very sensitive skin - free of all chemicals and dye-stuffs. A white inner wear in such case fulfills this requirement. This is the basic reason why an Indian woman goes for a white bra. White is the classic underwear color. The white bra is made from bleached fabric and is free from all dye-stuff. Your sensitive skin could be allergy to the chemical stuff used in the making of a colored bra. If it creates allergy or itching sensation, it would be awkward as it is a very vulnerable area. Also any allergy from a colour bra could affect the breast badly.
