Great match in a great series, some legendary players on show here. Given that this is 1961, this is excellent footage and commentary, many thanks for uploading.
The series was played under the old back-foot no ball rule, so the umps turn side on to watch the bowler's back foot, then turn to watch the batsman on strike. They would often have knees bent in a slight crouch to help adjudicate the height in an LBW appeal.
