Reader Kishore Mahadevan sent us this picture from Amsterdam.

'This picture with umpire Steve Bucknor was taken in 2004 at Amsterdam where India, Australia and Pakistan were playing a tri-series,' writes Kishore.

'My friend Ajay Joshi and I met Mr Bucknor at the McDonald's outlet in Amsterdam. With some hesitation I went and asked him, "Can we take a picture with you?"

Pleasantly surprised, Mr Bucknor replied, "With me?" When we said, "Yes, Mr Steve Bucknor", he nodded in trademark Bucknor style (the way he nods while declaring a batsman out!!) and posed with a smile for this photo.'

Thank you, Kishore, for sending this photograph!

If you encounter your favourite cricket/sports personalities, please mail the photograph or video to sportsdesk@rediff.co.in. We will feature the best images or videos right here on Rediff Cricket or Rediff Sports.
