If you ever wanted further proof that cricket is an artform just as much as it is a sport, here it is. The clip above features high motion, super slow motion footage of some of the highlights of the 2005 Ashes series. This relatively new found technology n cricket provides us the opportunity to witness cricket in a perspective never experienced before. And they say youtube is low res! Enjoy.

2:00 Trescothick’s forward defensive stroke that practically levitates and suspends above his head
