Out of sync sadly, great action though

Dennis Lillee was the greatest fast bowler of all time, beautiful action..

You can keep your trophies, this is why I started supporting Spurs, the working mans ballet.

I think my favourite player of all time. Langurous, classy, explosive, two-footed, cultured, clever….he had it all. From an Arsenal fan.

Ps Part 3 or Part 2?

The more often that one watches this, the more riches reveal themselves: yes, Dennis Lillie, but also Ray Bright. Yes Bob Willis but also Chris Old. The pivotal moment was his taking Allan Border's wicket. And another thing. That summer I was writing up my PhD Tgesis. Before then I'd taught Chemistry in three schools in south-east London/North-west Metropolitan Kent. In each case it was the Headmaster that made the school (or, in the first instance, Charterhouse Secondary Modern for Boys, the Deputy Head Bill Bailey). Thefore, in this case, Mike Brearley (and also Kim Hughes). But, of course, Ian Botham! Grat commentating and Umpiring too. Thank-you!

When you consider the bowling attacks he faced and the batters he bowled against he's got to be in the list of great all rounders

The acceleration of that guy was immense. For England.....Roger Hunt's all-round workrate or Greave's last quarter of the pitch speed , acceleration & accuracy of shot ? Jimmy for me any day , but Sir Alf begged to disagree . Against the hard-working West German in '66 - obviously he got it right. But not taking him to Mexico four years later was cruel .

Aaah the days when the boundary was actually at the bloody boundary

Tony Grieg was an above average all rounder...should have a longer career span...

Get a boundary here, and it registers on the scoreboard in Adelaide

Thats the time when they had the best wicketkeeper in the world playing for England BOB TAYLOR

Met Dennis at a party in Brisbane when they were there in '74, a good evening was had by all.

Tony Greig was the clear winner 🥇 in this contest as he out bowled & out batted Lillie on this occasion.

Great cricket

3rd rate player and 3rd rate commentator justifying the action.

Switching Bob Willis to the Kirkstall Lane End must have been a last resort gamble by Brearley as both were notorious for no-balls !

Two years later Michael Holding and the West Indies showed Greig who the real bosses of cricket were in that era.😂🤣

Boy, he had guts! 👍

Thanks for uploading this video.......only just came across it on RUclips.What memories this brings back to me at a time when i first fell in love with the game of cricket.The crowds make Test cricket which is why it's depressing to have just watched highlights of the first day of the second Test between WI and SA where there wasn't any crowd to speak of.Sad times for a lot of Test cricket.

Commentetors name plz

On Australia's fast pitches, England's batsmen struggled for runs. But,as Lillee,Thomson and co soon discovered, cricket becomes a different game when the pitches are slow. A really great performance from John Edrich,in particular.

the greatest english player ever ?

24:00 20th century cricketers would have made great rugby players.

Wow!!

The best! And he had a personality.

Very interesting, particularly in colour. Two year's before Snow toured Australia in Illingworth's team ,it is clear to see how John Snow was developing, hurrying the batsmen with good sharp bowling. No wonder he ran amok in '70-'71. Thanks for the upload 😁👍

Well this example is also a summary of Snow's career which can be otherwise expressed as mediocre, whereas Gavaskar who was unfazed by the incident reached the pinnacle. This speaks to the virtue of calm but deadly focus versus mindless and premeditated aggression which only ended up getting in the way of what might have been a slightly less forgettable career for Snow.

Worse commentator ever, Richie Benaud. Commentated for decades. Annoying commentator

I first remember these I think in the 80s. They were sometimes shown when rain or bad light stopped play. I always enjoyed them. Thanks for these, and please upload more if you have them.

36:58 looks out to me.

Proper cricket

Delightful chaos at the end to watch the spectators rush in!! Can you even imagine this happening today? 🤣🤣

Not only statically a great all-rounder..but did a lot for sri Lankan cricket and promoted SriLankan culture...and a natural people person.

Tony Greig obviously number one commentator in the world .

Well played Greigy. Now on your bike mate you're out. Lillee obviously won! haha

Tommo got him cheaply in the second innings.

Great footage, many thanks for uploading.

My favorite commentator

Can you upload Kapil Dev's and Sandeep Patil's innings in this test match ?

Maybe snow did that knowing that one day sunny will promote Gutkha tobacco . So realising that Gutkha spreads cancer he tried to push sunny from cricket itself on his debut series 😂

I miss the days when a batsman behaved with dignity upon scoring 100.

His commentary was excellent his voice was matchless we r missing his voice

Jimmy Greaves for me the greatest player in a spurs shirt,wish we had you at spurs now RIP Jimmy

I saw a few clips of tony greig where he played left handed Will someone clarify

Thompson wasn't that quick

And this where Tony started the bouncer war that series....can only imagine what his batsmen though of it...

They are so funny,I think oliver is the funniest 😂

You have to give credit where it is due - Tony Greig was the omly Test batsman I can think of who was brave enough to taunt Lillee and Thomson in their prime. An insane thing to do for ordinary men,but then there was nothing ordinary about Greig. An underappreciated warrior who won his spurs in the arena of gladiatorial warfare.

In Australia it was Ball by Ball Radio Commentary those days. Commentary differs when it comes to Television.. Not much explanation needed for TV Commentary. Indian commentators give Radio Commentary for TV .
