I was at the game. Remember this team well. Hayes at one point in the series scored a century against bowlers like Boyce. He moved hie feet so well to meet the ball. The West Indies were amazing to watch and yes muted celebrations.
It is amazing how it took so long for anyone within the television industry to decide that it might be a good idea to have cameras behind both sets of stumps and then switch from one camera shot to the other at the end of each over.
Loved these days as a kid ,going for a swim on the beach ,but made sure I was home for 11.30 when the day's play started .West Indies won the series 2-0 with Sobers scoring a classic 150 in 3rd test on his farewell appearance in England
Their names were impressive their behavior more humble and more impressive and the exicution of game was most impressive i will always love them i will always remember their game.great wi team.
Those days i was in my teens listening to cricket on small a transistor radio didn't quite understand fielding position but got a small cricket magazine from my eldest brother and began to fully understand the game.
It's interesting to hear Ritchie saying that Kallicharan was nowhere near the pitch of the ball when he hit Underwood. This is now an orthodox stroke in modern cricket. Sobers was a god.
