My dad is so fond of cricket. I became a Cricket fan because of my dad. Today seeing this video, i can imagine why Cricket is the greatest game on earth.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Incredible game!!! Dream to watch for any cricket lover. 2 legend captains Warrell and Benaud and so many legend players game has ever seen Sobers, Hall, Grout....Above all the spirit from both sides you will hardly see now a days.....I wish cricket comes back in the same format now
Wesley, thanks for rekindling this attitude-forming boyhood memory when everything was possible. I remember in great detail the commentary on my static-invaded little radio on the Corentyne how sweet the taste of achievement was. May those attitudes return to our cricket and way of life!
1:47 I still regard it as the greatest test match ever played. The second greatest would be the Adelaide test of that same summer, where the 9th wicket partnership held fort for 2 hours to garner a draw.
Anyone who is not white is colored, thus non whites. That term is now considered politically incorrect. I personally like African American or Afro Caribbean.
You forgot the Age of and Era in which these Cricketers grew up. Back in those days West Indians called themselves Coloured, because we are of mixed races. Furthermore people from the African Continent laugh when they hear the Term, "African American" or "Afro Caribbean." As far as they are concerned, the Black people of America and the Caribbean ceased to be "African" when they were taken from the Continent during Slavery. I learnt that straight from the horses' mouths. You should just appreciate these men for who they are and the experiences that thet had, for they are now are all in their late 80s. Do not rewrite their experiences.

The umpires still shafted West Indies though and they did not complain.
Thanks for this 3-part documentary. They brought back memories when I was a teenager living in Guyana.
Thanks Chris - i have this on video and couldn’t watch it even though it is really good. A great watch with play rained out. Cheers

Great game. So many legends involved in that immortal over by Wes Hall.
Thanks for the memories. Remember, as kid, my grandfather and great uncle on the porch in rocking chairs raving and arguing about this match.

These were west indes juring the glory days guys who play for pride
I heard the story that Gary Sobers hit the first ball from Alan Davidson in the Sydney Test for six. was that true ?
Wish the WI team had Roy Gilchrist and Collie Smith who died young
Only 8 wickets were fallen...How is it a tie?
