What a glorious side the WI was in the 70s, 80s & till mid 90s, they were simply unbeatable & invincible. The kind of batsmen & the battery of fast bowlers they had were simply incredible & the opponents were no match to them. That's truly nostalgic Calypso cricket 🏏

The youngsters who would have seen west indies in those days were very fortunate,Not only for the pacers but also the batsmen playing authentic,classic cricket strokes.And they played it with conventional bats.
West Indies still have a good talent pool but because of the lack of funding in Windies cricket players either drift from the game or even those who go pro concentrate on the T20 circuit rather than national cricket
I remember this match really well, having finished my final high school exams the day before it started !! At the end of the 1st day, WI were 0/39 in reply to Australia all out 167. The next day headline in the paper was straight to the point - it said "Windies rip us to shreds". Summed it up very well !!
The only unfortunate thing with highlight reels is that they don’t show how many times the Oz batsmen were also beaten for pace and movement. It was always just pure survival.
One more thing - the Courtney Walsh 2nd wicket in 2nd innings was a hat trick !! At the time, it wasn't realised that he took a wicket with his last ball in the 1st innings to go with his first 2 in the 2nd innings. Amazingly in the very next Test Merv Hughes also took a hat trick over 2 innings.
@28:02 - Young Steve Waugh's 90 in Aus second innings was truly gem of an innings, easily the best batting in this match. He really took the battle to the great West Indian fast bowlers. He played freely and fearlessly. The square cut off Ambrose @28:30 and the hook off Marshall @30:52 were truly phenomenal. He played several brilliant shots - many of which could not go to the boundary because of the very slow outfield. The flicked boundary off Ambrose yorker @29:18 and the square cut boundaries off Marshall @29:40 and Walsh @31:34 were great shots too.
Today, Jan 17th, 2024, was the first day of the first test in a two test WI tour of Australia. Many predictions were not flattering, and test cricket is ailing for many nations. But let’s hope it isn’t the end and carries on, and somehow, the WI s can be great again.
Very few commenters have noticed that this footage has ABC radio commentary. No channel 9 coverage available? Perhaps Rob Moody may know why. I could recognize Jim Maxwell on the commentary.
It’s ABC TV coverage as well. Note the camera films the action from only one end. This coverage would have gone out to regional viewers with no access to the Nine coverage.
In those days the ABC had the rights to telecast test cricket in Regional Australia. The odis were broadcast on channel 9 through regional stations such as GMV 6 in shepparton. The boxing day test of 1991/92 was the last test broadcast by ABC TV as aggregation started on the 1st of January 1992
Greenidge averaged 30 in 33 test innings in Australia with one century. His opening partner Haynes averaged 10 in Kerry Packers World Series Cricket. The opening partner of Greenidge at Hampshire, Barry Richards averaged 79 in World Series Cricket.
during the time that Steve Waugh still played that signature backfoot slash through point. He shelved that shot - along with the pull shot - in the second part of his career.
For me this is the ultimate dream team no weaknesses anywhere. Ambrose, Walsh, Marshall and Patterson all in excess of 90 -100 m.p.h and the batting greatness of Greenidge, Haynes, Hooper, Richards, Richardson and Logie with Dujon keeping wicket. A truly frightening team with talent, great fielders like Arthurton and Logie at short leg and Richards in the covers. If Australia had Mcdermott, Lillee, Thomson and Brett Lee playing at the same time it would have been a lot closer. Can you imagine if Brian Lara was in this team 😳. For me intimidating, fear, an all time great team. I've always wanted the Windies to do well but they don't have the conveyor belt of quicks like they had in the 70's and 80's.
except Carl Hooper - he was the one under-performer of that team. Frustrating as hell - he would play some magestic shots, then get out in the most ridiculous fashion.
Gus logie one of the greatest foward short leg fielder makes fielding looks so easy and it was is brilliant fielding that allow him to remain in that great side west Indies team of that era is the greatest cricket team of all time the opener the number 3 viv Richards Richardson and the six best fastest bowlers in the world and a very competent keep with a very astute captain my words a masterpiece of a team
The same today if you watch there T20 or ODI team. Gayle, Evin lewis, Powell, Hope, Bravo brothers, Pollard, Sammy Holder, Andre Russell, Taylor & Narine
Roberts, Garner, Holding and Croft Marshall, Garner, Holding and Walsh Marshall, Patterson, Walsh and Ambrose Ambrose, Walsh and Bishop From the mid 70’s to the mid 90’s. There was no better breeding ground than the West Indies for great fast bowlers👍🏼
Although not taking anything away from India, it was a brilliant victory at the Gabba, but I wonder if it affected Australia by the test match being played later on in the series?? The Gabba test match is normally the first one of the Australian summer, played in November, but the India game was the last test match played in January. Probably not, I just wondered??
I was there for the first day of this test. Went with a girl called Marisa. It didn’t work out between us but cool to go to the cricket with a girl. Despite being under shade I still got pretty sunburnt.
Not a bad bowling lineup for the Windies: Marshall, Patterson, Ambrose, Walsh & Hooper (I don't count Richards even though he bowled 11 overs in the 2nd, he only bowled 1 over in the 1st innings)
I listened this match on the radio in Jamaica i could heard the West Indian players setting up Steve Waugh they decided that he is not going to make the century you could hear them through the stump mike
Proper cricket, real no hards barred stuff. And notice Logie at silly mid on needing a step ladder to give a high five to the quicks after a wicket fell..
Guss Loggee was the best example of unbelievable fielding of cricket history. اور لوگی ویسٹ انڈیز ٹیم کی بہترین تاریخ گزرا ہے،جس نے ایک بر reserve fielerکی غیر معمولی پرفارمنس کی وجہ سے ایک odiمیں پاکستان کے خلاف مین آ ف دی میچ لیا تھا
This is a bit of an anorak question: this coverage doesn't seem to be by Channel 9 (different commentators, 70s quality camera work and graphics). Did Channel 9 lose the rights?
Great video thanks so much. Australia are so hard to beat, and Umpire Tony Crafter was an absolute cheat in my view, he denied NZ test victories twice. Just my opinion.
Roger Wills and David Morrow did the lead commentary, Ray Phillips (ex-Qld keeper) and Geoff Lawson (who was 12th man for this test and got his jaw broken in the next) were the other voices.
We didn't win a lost of test series during the 80s and were slaughtered every time we played the Windies. His Sheffield Shield performances were excellent (I remember him getting a triple century). You should check the averages of the other openers to get a perspective. Everything changed when Taylor-Slater took over with Boon at three then the Waugh brothers with Border wedged in the middle. It was a formidable line-up that still took too long to beat the Windies! But the Boon-Marsh era was the beginning of stability for the Australian batting line-up
That ball by Ambrose to Wood should have been illegal...no one should be allowed to bowl a ball like that...I was scared just watching it from my loungeroom. No Border or Jones or Mark Taylor or Hughes or Lawson (although he was commentating) or Alderman. They would all be instrumental in the demolition of England the following year (with Steve Waugh of course!)
Scores / Stats were are never displayed on the screen. Boring to watch a match or even highlights if we don't get to see individual scores, number of balls faced, boundaries hit etc. Same for Bowling too, stats/numbers are very important in this game. At least, they should point the camera to the score board on the ground every now and then. Also, this Brisbane pitch is bouncy and is not exclusively for cricket, used as a dog race track too. But what a Team WI had - Greendige, Haynes, Richards, Richardson - Top class batsmen Gus Logie, Jeff Dujon - Top class fielders/Wicket keeper Walsh, Ambrose, Marshal - best of the best. lethal bowlers, simply destroyed Australia.
Look at the white uniforms of the players. No Ads on the uniform. They look so clean and tidy. Beautiful!
I agree
What a glorious side the WI was in the 70s, 80s & till mid 90s, they were simply unbeatable & invincible.
The kind of batsmen & the battery of fast bowlers they had were simply incredible & the opponents were no match to them.
That's truly nostalgic

West Indies used to be such a great team. Its sad to see their downfall. Want to see west indies again achieving the same glory.
To think this windies team was considered weaker than the side that toured in 84/85. Some definition of "weak".
After Micheal Jordan blew in the early 90s most youths in the West Indies started moving towards basketball

who thought at the time that Aus wouldn't lose another test here till 2021
When wi dies we’re kings now sad story struggling for so long feel sorry for there greats watching this
Some serious mulletry on display there
West indies greats now they are great from bottom
our players have lost ground. the current fast bowlers have not learned a thing from the greats
Ambrose coming on second change😲
Ya, that was how good the WI bowling attack was in the 80s!
It was during the early part of his career, while the talent was obvious since his debut there was more established bowlers who took the new ball.
This is a bit of an anorak question: this coverage doesn't seem to be by Channel 9 (different commentators, 70s quality camera work and graphics). Did Channel 9 lose the rights?
This commentary is from radio. ABC I believe. You can tell by the way the commentary is flowing.
Ambrose, Walsh, Patterson and Marshall, a pretty useful bowling line-up!
not useful great bowling line up and include michell holding andy robert joel garner in this list also
Lol he is talking about this match.
Soon we will have no test cricket. Thanks to IPL and BCCI. So sad. Dont think any other sport managed to destroy itself in such a short space of time.
Great video thanks so much. Australia are so hard to beat, and Umpire Tony Crafter was an absolute cheat in my view, he denied NZ test victories twice. Just my opinion.
Before you mention poor umpiring, I suggest you check the footage of the 1980 home NZ-WI test series and see the standard of Kiwi umpiring.
Yes most umpires were biased in those days with Australians amongst the worst
@@mjoyce77 no way. pakistani, west indian, english and indian umpires were far worse
Too right. Only good thing that Tony Crafter ever did was to make sure that both test umpires in the future were neutral. Stay safe
Tony Crafter was an excellent umpire in my opinion so much better than some of the indian and pakistan umpires
Desmond Haynes beautiful batting 😅
see the timing of viv richards at 20.34 for six sign of great player
I think Steve waugh score his next to this series against England after 5 years of his debut
He made his first century in the 1989 ashes in England. He was probably kept in the side in the early years for his bowling rather than his batting.
Wow didn't know abc also covered this series
Maybe for regional areas where they didnt get channel 9 im thinking...
The ABC continued with coverage in country areas for a while, before they were eventually stripped of it altogether.
ABC covered tests in regional areas until 1991/92 the Boxing day test in 1991 was the last test broadcast by the ABC
Was that Gerry Collins doing a bunch of the ball-by-ball?
Roger Wills and David Morrow did the lead commentary, Ray Phillips (ex-Qld keeper) and Geoff Lawson (who was 12th man for this test and got his jaw broken in the next) were the other voices.
I am watching it after yesterday’s defeat of pakistan to see how Australia lost last time at Gabba
who are these commentators?
Its interesting to see how the australian public deserted the ground in the 4th innings
+Glen Smith Checking Cricinfo tells me it was a Monday... fair chance most would've needed to be working.
It's a rather strange thing in Australia that Test crowds tend to get smaller as the match goes on.
Poor sports people, do'nt like loosing.
Those snorters from ambrose at 5 mins.
WI was a terror those days.
They simply played their game hard & fair & won the hearts of even opponents.
That's the beauty of WI team.
Terrible mullets on display. That Ambrose ball to Wood was brutal!
Who is here after Windies beat Australia at Gabba in 2024?? 😁😁
Well toned batsmen like Lolyd, Gomes retired which never found good replacement.
Rahul dravid must have started his career around this time
How did Geoff marsh play 50 tests with a batting average of 30🤨
During that era the bowling attacks were a lot stronger than they are today.
Also there wasn't as much obsession with statistics.
Good question.
Surprising that a man with a mediocre average played longer.
We didn't win a lost of test series during the 80s and were slaughtered every time we played the Windies. His Sheffield Shield performances were excellent (I remember him getting a triple century). You should check the averages of the other openers to get a perspective. Everything changed when Taylor-Slater took over with Boon at three then the Waugh brothers with Border wedged in the middle. It was a formidable line-up that still took too long to beat the Windies! But the Boon-Marsh era was the beginning of stability for the Australian batting line-up

No Border or Jones or Mark Taylor or Hughes or Lawson (although he was commentating) or Alderman. They would all be instrumental in the demolition of England the following year (with Steve Waugh of course!)
Did the ABC have TV rights to this test?
Not many would be viewing or adding comments to this if India would not have created history at Gabba.
