Image: An OFFICIAL TEAM PHOTOGRAPH of a fictional cricket

Generated from: An OFFICIAL TEAM PHOTOGRAPH of a fictional cricket club for a management game. ABSOLUTE RULE, THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE: the picture contains NOT ONE SINGLE CHARACTER. No letters, no words, no digits, no squad numbers on shirts, no player names, no sponsor wordmarks, no season year, no caption board, no signage behind the group. Team photos normally carry a sponsor board and a year — both must be absent. Do not write out any word from this instruction anywhere in the image. SUBJECT: the traditional posed squad photograph, taken head-on from a slightly elevated position. Eighteen people in three clean rows on the outfield: the front row seated on a bench with the captain in the centre holding a ball, the middle row standing, the back row standing on a low riser so every face is fully visible and nobody is hidden. All players wear the identical navy-and-gold match shirt with a small original crest on the chest and completely blank sponsor panels; the four staff at the ends wear a darker coaching gilet. Arms folded or hands on knees, uniform posture per row, everyone looking at the camera with a composed expression. The squad is visibly mixed in appearance, age and build, as a real cricket squad is. Faces are individual and distinct — no two people look alike. SETTING: an empty stadium behind them, stands softly out of focus, the pitch square visible at their feet. Even overcast daylight, no harsh shadows across the faces. Everything is original and invented, resembling no real club, franchise or national team. Photorealistic team photography, sharp faces, plausible anatomy, correct hands and fingers, correct number of people per row, natural skin tones, consistent lighting, no perspective distortion, no HDR oversaturation, nobody cropped by the frame.
