Image: Premium broadcast graphic for a fictional cricket

Generated from: Premium broadcast graphic for a fictional cricket management game: the BOWLING RANKING, a top-five list. FRAMING RULE: render the picture as a widescreen 16:9 photograph occupying the central horizontal band of the canvas. The top strip is plain empty dark gradient, the bottom strip plain dark blurred crowd; nothing important enters either strip. SCENE: a clean editorial ranking composition. Five bowlers' head-and-shoulders portraits arranged in a horizontal row, all rendered at the same size for a fair comparison, each inside its own vertical card. The first card carries a restrained cool golden rim light; the rest are treated plainly. Behind the row, a subtle cricket-ball motif: a large ball with its seam clearly visible, dark and softly out of focus. Each card holds an empty band beneath the portrait for a name and a small empty rectangle for a form indicator. Cool, analytical, even lighting. The five players are of visibly different appearance — South Asian, Caribbean, African, Australasian and European — as international cricket actually looks, and each wears a differently coloured invented kit. INTERFACE LAYER: the five cards and one slim horizontal bar in the upper middle, one fifteenth of the picture height. Cards are dark smoked-glass plates in navy over anthracite, distinctly darker than the background, opaque enough to read as real plates. Even spacing, soft shadows, rounded corners, hairline outlines. COMPLETELY TEXT-FREE: no letters, words, digits, numerals, rank numbers, ratings, wicket totals, jersey numbers, written signage or pseudo-lettering anywhere, including inside every card, band, tile and bar. Every name band and indicator rectangle is a clean empty plate. Do not draw rank numerals beside the portraits — position alone conveys the order. SAFE ZONE: every card and the bar keep at least one tenth of the picture width and height clear of all four edges. No card is cropped and no head is cut off. COLOUR: deep navy blue, neutral anthracite, white highlights, one restrained gold rim light on the first card only. Card borders and frames stay strictly neutral brushed graphite and warm grey — never saturated team colours. Everything fictional: original abstract textless crests, invented kit designs, no resemblance to any real league, club, player, broadcaster or sponsor. Photorealistic sports-broadcast portraits, sharp, correct cricket ball with a visible seam, plausible anatomy, correct hands and fingers, natural skin tones and pores, plausible shadows, no HDR oversaturation, no beauty-filter smoothing.
