ANOTHER! (A-L-IASE)!!! IS! (QUICK)!!! MICK!!! HOLDING!!! &! OF! COURSE! (FORM-A-L-L--Y)!!! MICHAEL!!! HOLDING!!!
He was perfect
Absolutely right...watching him live scared me enough....superb..to watch amongst the quartet greatests
Rolls Royce are the Michael Holding of automobiles, just not as fast.
So smooth. Lolloping in😂 not steaming in for 2 or overs. Smooth, economical and most of all PACE! Lovely man, ambassador. I salute you Mr Holding.
I'm only here for his voice
Yeah mon
I love listening to him talk. Voice and the no nonsense style. And he is very grounded.
His commentary is as good as his bowling
RONS
Always a pleasure to hear holding, always timeless...
As beautiful as a poetry...
Poetry in motion...Mikee Holding set the bar of attainment high. He will forever soar over the cricketing landscape and make Caribbean people proud- bounce he Mikee!!
One of the greatest sights in the game was Michael Holding running in to bowl - beautiful
And deadly accurate - 1976 The Oval.
Not if you're batting.
Poetry In Motion, Steve! I ws fortunate enuff to see him bowl at Lords in the early 80's . My grandad took me..
@@paulbartell8872 What a joy it must have been
I watched Michael Holding back in the 70's and 80's and I remember it as if it were yesterday. The man floated up to the crease and effortlessly sent down a 100 mph ball. He was indeed a finely tuned, well-oiled, Rolls Royce. Test match umpire Dickie Bird jokingly complained that, unlike the other bowlers, he couldn't hear Holding approaching during his run-up, and he had to turn to see him; that was more work for Bird. Great to see Mr. Holding is holding his own off the pitch as he did so magnificently on it.
Sir those golden days will never come back 😢😢
That's where he got the name 'whispering death'
holding never bowled 100 mph
@@adhirajsingh1806 that time there was no ball to ball measuring. Boycott, Imran Khan, Kapil, Chapell and many of his contemporary players rate Holding the fastest of all times, as quick as Thomson. He was the fastest of fearsome foursome
@@adwait73 them rating him as the fastest of all time does not matter as they have not played against all fast bowlers to ever have played international cricket. You can't just say he bowled 100 mph and give the reasoning that his contemporaries said he was the fastest. By the way, a fast bowling competition was held in 1979 where the fastest bowler Thomson measured 91.9 mph and Holding did 87.8. In WACA in 1975, Thomson recorded 99.7 mph and Roberts recorded 99.1 mph. In 1976, Holding also measured a fastest ball of 153 kmph. At the peak of his career, Holding probably bowled in the 140+ kmph range with his fastest ball ever being close to 155, but not '100 mph effortlessly'.
Australia and India fast bowling from Michael holding that line just made my day.
Same , check my videos on 🇮🇳 bowlers
Holding speaks from experience. Fantastic fast bowler, a man who talks sense. Spirited guy. Rightly says, fast bowling comes from the heart, only body aint enough.
Sir, In my opinion Michael holding, Joel Garner, Andy Roberts should be appointed as bowling coaches.
Sir Vivian Richards, batting coach, Gus Logie, fielding coach for the current West Indies team.
Then only the current West Indies team will dominate the cricketing world.

Can’t decide whether his bowling is better than his commentary or the other way round !!
Great Person whatever he does
I remember an Aus v Windies test match at the SCG in the mid 80s. There was a massive banner on the old hill that read 'Michael's Holding Viv's Richard'!
What a legend, loved watching him play and try to emulate his bowling action as a young bloke.
I just love him.. His voice ,his bowling everything.
Micheal Holding one of the greatest fast bowlers of all time, and smoothest run up and action ever!!!
Good story in Kim Hughes' biography: One of the young Australian batsmen of the time told Kim (his captain) he was troubled by Michael Holding - not for all the usual reasons, but because when facing up to him he found himself absolutely mesmerized by Mikey's run up. Kim's advice: Once he starts his run up, look down at the crease and tap your bat three times. When you look up again, he'll be two thirds of the way in. Not sure it worked.
I love watching Michael holding’s pace bowling. Great run up, beautiful and rhythmic action with sheer pace bowling who can move the ball in both direction.
I met him once at Edgbaston and the man is very down to earth.
When did you meet him
@@hez5354 i also met him in 1991
Always talks a lot of sense, what a great voice & accent too, top man
At 6.20 Michael Holding starts talking about the Indian and Australian fast bowling attacks - just how good they were becoming. Watching the current Test Series between Australia and India, some 15 months after the interview, he is absolutely right. The test matches are dominated by the quicks from both teams and it is wonderful to watch.
They didn't call him Whispering Death for nothing! Run up was so cool, calm, & collected you would not believe the pace he generated after he let that ball fly! What a bowler and what gentleman Michale was and still still is.
One of the great icons of cricket! Come do some commentary in Aus!
So well versed and knowledgeable... love that guy
I can listen to him for hours.
Felt great when he mentioned India..!!❤️❤️❤️
i am from australia and i agree the current indian fast bowlers mainly bumrah are as good as any teams quicks i think siraj is going to be a fantastic bowler not super quick but very talented
When bro ?
That's the fast bowler, I could watch him all day none stop. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love hearing this man speak. Always a pleasure when he’s on the commentary team.
The bowler's Holding the batsman's Willey. (Commentary)
Priceless.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol surprised nobody else noticed the humor besides brilliant me haha
It's a treat to watch his rhythmic run up .
Fast bowling is an art..
And he is great artist...
Very easy,
Step 1. Get Holding’s DNA
Step 2. Setup a human cloning lab
Step 3. Make several clones
Step 4. Let them grow
Step 5. And hope one of your clones loves to play cricket.
Step 6. You got a fast bowler.
The end.
Ahmed Syed Ahmed- that’s six simple steps to a deadly fast bowler 😊😂
Ahmed sahib thats really funny.
@Free Speech not marshal though
@@fessellsahmed2587 it's more hilarious it's not hysterical funny
@@mdahsanulhaque817 I saw Holding ball live at Oval 1979 semi final world cup Pakistan v West Indies. I was wondering did you ever see Holding ball in a stadium. On tv you cant judge speed. Thats the funny part. I spent my pocket money on that semi final ticket. I was 10 years old. Your surname is fake by the way.
Love holding’s powerful voice !
What a man, what a stand-up person of his principles, what a bowler!!! ❤
this man's accent ....im so in love with it
Haaha same
Classiest bloke on the cricketing scene.
Michael Holding also known as whispering death, his Run up was as
Smooch as a ballet dancer, yet he was one of the fastest bowlers that ever played the game Geoffrey Boycott in one of his interviews said that Holding was the fastest bowler he had ever faced not only this he said that holding always give the impression that he was holding back not using his full pace
He's deadly after all. No one in the modern era can do that.
Sir Don used to be a great fan of his Artistic action.
Inspirational people ❤️🙏
Best fast bowler ever in cricket history thanks for a video😎😎😎😎
Holding such a humble guy
Great persona!
I can just listen to him for hours because he sounds so convincing.
I can remember standing behind the nets at the SCG2 before the Sydney test during the 75/76 series. Michael Holding was bowling to Roy Fredricks with a 2 piece ball. It was terrifying. Roy stormed off in a huff after he'd been hit the 3rd or 4th time.
Mike West Indies need you now
More than ever
Ultimate bowling action to bowl fast , before or after Holding No one near perfect in Action to bowl fast.
Nice&useful talk for young fast bowlers.
Holding, an amazingly wise man. the 'master uguye' of cricket.
In today generation no one is nearby him Legend bowler❤❤❤❤❤

Words from the wise and a man of wisdom.

Holding always bashes Indian cricket and ipl ..but here I see him praising Indian fast bowlers..he is a rare unbiased commentator in cricket nowadays
Great Michael holding
👌🏻 Enjoyed the Video.
Legend michel holding
Love micheal holding...!!!
Very good analyst of cricket
Whispering death...💥
what a legend
His voice is amazing
What a bowler
Thaaat waaas a GOOOOD shot!!!! Ya maaan...
Had the most beautiful run up and bowling action of any bowler that’s ever played cricket. Watched him in his prime and he was blisteringly quick and in my opinion only Jeff Thomson who I also saw in his prime was quicker.
The best nickname in cricket.
He is up there right at the Top
How well spoken he's
Typical Jamaican Twang Mr. Whispering Death
2:36
In the history of Test Match Cricket, Whispering Death is the only fast bowler there has ever been to frighten the opposition into absolute capitulation. As captain of India in 1976,Bishan Bedi refused to bat for his country not once but twice. Both he(Bedi)and the 3 remaining players had the opportunity to win the Test Match and the series but fear prevented him from taking up the challenge.
I m here for him only love to listen him truly insparational
The great one. The man is bigger than the myth...
I miss him
1st your voice is incredible.2nd i love your bowling
Whispering Death. The most beautiful quick of all time.
The cricketers who had that great swag in their play, speak and conduct - Holding, Viv Richards, Imran khan and Kohli
Watching HOLDING run up to the wicket was like seeing USAIN BOLT RUNNING IN THE OLYMPICS 100M RACE
A marquee series in December between the best fast bowling attacks
2 of the top 3 best fast bowling attack.
Time and Time again Mikey holding have tried to tell even showed the young up coming fast bowlers how it is done but they just couldn't get it not for hell up on till today oh Lord !!
Michael holding is a very nice
Holding, Lillee, Rabada..smoothest run-ups I've seen in all the cricket I've watched
Co-ordination for fast bowling, explain Max "Tangles" Walker
he sucked
Healy looks like tweety bird in front of Holding.
Goat
6:23....India developing fast bowlers....it was started by😮 Ganguly to bring more fast bowlers nearly 25 years before....DADA ur great
Michael bowls fast the great
Viv Richards
Holding
Marshall
Dujon
Ambrose
W.Indies was beast even batsmen feared their bowling
And bowlers feared their batting.
Ambrose is not from that group.
@@Nazeem_6621 but still.. he was great...
@@Sagar_Patelv28 True!
A total master. The most glorious action ever. Was like poetry
He acquired the nickname whispering death in Australia whose cricket community admired him an electric diesel locomotive that was deceptively quiet and maimed or killed a lot of track maintenance workers Michael holding did pretty much the same to batsmen who faced him
Legend love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
When he said India... I was like... excuse me 🙄... then I'm like... yeah I think I agree 🤨
CORRECT! THE! BLACK! (POWER)! TRIO! IN! SPORT! IN! THE! (1970s)! MUHAMMAD! ALI! IN! BOXING! PELE! IN! FOOTBALL! MICHAEL!!! HOLDING!!! IN! CRICKET! (M-E-M-ORIES)!!!
Anyone know the name of the background song at 0:52 ?
Iceman Cocu isn’t it just channel 9s wide world of sports theme
Jeff Thomson explains it the best: “Just run in and go wang!”
Mikey knows!
Holding wasn't fast..only 100 miles per hour. He didnt even try. If he had tried maybe faster
Geoffrey Boycott once said that however fast Holding bowls, it always seems that he can bowl faster.
@@michaelcorleone7297 I watched Holding ball in front of me at Oval in 1979 and the wicket keeper was near the boundary. He was lightning fast but concentrated on line and length.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He is like the Morgan Freeman of cricket
Three years on, how right was Mickey about Jofre! Root and England's management destroyed him in 12 months. Mindless.
What sight would have been if Sachin or Dravid had faced him... surely there would have been lightning and thunder in the field
4:57, he was right, Archer gets injured so much after the Ashes.
Holding , your era is completely different from today, it is not so much of fast bowling but how effective you can swing the ball both ways. This is why Bumrah an Ishant Sharma are so effective.
Who is the five fastest west indian bowlers
Micheal Holding or Pattrick Patterson .
Patterson,holding,roberts,marshall,croft
@@davidhenry8056you forgot Garner
do those West Indian cricketers age ?
