I can't take seriously anyone's all-time England Test XI if it doesn't have Hammond in it. He would pretty much be my first pick.

Agree. It would be like Australia leaving out Bradman, or the West Indies, Sobers.
@@ethybubs Anderson?
@@farhanyasmin Great player but not sure who I could take out for him
Truly a fascinating glimpse into the craft of making cricket bats and the art of using them!!
Greatest All-rounder
He wasn't a great all rounder, he bowls though,
He is one of the greatest batsmen
Hammond is England's Greatest Test Batsman according to me. I rate Hammond above Hobbs, Hutton, Grace etc. Thanks for documentary. Now I won't hesitate to tell Hammond is one of the Greatest Batsman I saw. From what I saw in Documentary videos Bradman is more elegant and pleasing to eyes compared to Hammond. From what I saw in the documentary I will certainly say Bradman is the Greatest Batsman I saw in my lifetime.
Rahul Dravid, Adam Gilchrist and Don Bradman are my all time favourite batsman ❤
Great, great picks. I'll also appreciate Gilchrist. Imo, if he would have played as a specialist in tests, he could have become one of the ATGs..
@@RP-kr2mg Gilchrist is already one of the greats of All Time. Considering what he has achieved as WKB. The fact is that Gilly revolutionized the role of WKB. If he played as a specialist batsman, he night have broken many records.
England’s greatest cricketer
My favourite England cricket deserved such great players of all time
A rare footage Indeed!
