Noel McKenna revisits the moment Australian cricketer Trevor Chappell was instructed by his captain Greg Chappell to bowl the last ball of a One Day International along the ground, denying opponents New Zealand the opportunity to tie the match. Composed of visual and text elements, the painting is both a depiction of the event and a comment on the pressures faced by professional sportspeople. McKenna depicts the point of no return as the ball is released from the bowler
