Script title says September 1870 (see note). Educated guess - photographer is Charles Pickering, under the direction of James Barnet, who is probably one of those gents with a top hat.

Charles Pickering was commissioned to photograph public works for the government architect James Barnet in 1870. The photographs themselves were intended for display at the London Exhibition of 1873; Pickering was previously engaged as the official photographer to the Metropolitan Intercolonial Exhibition of 1870. Photographers such as Charles Nettleton and the firm of Cox & Luckin were given similiar commissions in Melbourne as photography played an increasingly important role in the work of government departments. (The collection is on the State Libray of N.S.W. database. This database has a facility to view photographs in a high quality resolution which is really the best way to view the photographs - because of size constraints I will post a link to the high resolution version beneath each photograph).

Queensland Cricket, formerly known as the Queensland Cricket Association, is the governing body of Cricket in Queensland, Australia. Formed in 1876,[1] it is directly responsible for the Queensland Bulls, Queensland Fire, Allan Border Field and Queensland Premier Cricket. Terry Svenson is the current CEO of the body,[2] and Chris Simpson is Chairman of the Board of Directors.[3] Queensland Premier Cricket was founded for the 1897/98 season as the premier competition for Brisbane cricket clubs but it has since expanded to represent wider South East Queensland with Ipswich, Gold Coast, and Sunshine Coast teams competing. Other grade competitions affiliated with Queensland Cricket include Townsville Cricket,[4] and Cricket Far North.[5] Source: gaz.wiki/wiki/pt/Queensland_Cricket
