After winning only one match across the two World Cups in the 70s, India scripted a turnaround for the ages by winning the 1983 World Cup.

Why Cricket has Neutral Umpires Today | A Century of Cricket |#12
Rosogolla was is and will always be from bengal. First let odisha set their GDP before snatching things from others...🤡
14:25 Akash Chopra was unappreciated. When he came to open the batting, the Indian team had been in crisis for years with the opening batsmen. They wouldn’t last five overs leave aside the first session. Akash came in and blunted the opposition bowling in Australia. His downside was an inability to score runs at a good clip. But he did the job that was desperately needed. Pity
Ishan❤
Jo Da what did you do? Cyrus is wearing Pants
Jamshedji Tata, had never closed the Taj Mahal Palace hotel's, doors in over a century. During World War II it served as a makeshift hospital of over 600 beds
India is a civilisational state.
Bla bla...the Designs are fantastic...but this guy not!!
Bhai teaser dal diya..video kab daloge
Awesome
Americans.
Congress....only branded your self and family members not India. Therefore an element named indira
Great
Boss, the World Cups you talk about and till 1987, were played with red ball. Pls get your facts straight.
Last Pongal test : '88 ind v wi
had no idea about india's heroics in '77 and '81. damn this video needs to reach more people.
What an engaging conversation!
awara= stray
These are such great stories to revisit. I never knew Cyrus was such a crazy cricket fan. Thank you both!
Good podcast. One suggestion: Do not rush it. A bit too hasty perhaps.
Forceful subtitles are really irritating
Bawa looking really buff...good job Cyrus. Keep the health and fitness vibe intact.
Hello Cyrus, Joy is a fabulous storyteller you should have let him speak. You were interrupting way too much...aahh!
Amazing podcast ❤
Was trying to recall previous test series over the years. Without much success. This conversation was great. Thank you !
Very well curated show, thank you!
You were gem of a person 😅
Cyrus I met you personally in Abu Dhabi long time ago if you remember
I’m sure he does. He probably mentioned you in his personal diary as well that night before going to bed.
Hi
Joy don’t we give bonuses to our helps and employees during Durga Pujo? Is a concept of a boxing day so far off from this? Why do you sound like a typical brown saheb everywhere you go?
We also should have test matches on festival days like Diwali , Pongal , Dasara , Ugadi , Christmas and Ramzan
Season's greetings, everyone! 🎄 The most important thing on everyone's mind right now should be investing in different sources of income that don't rely on the government, especially with the current economic crisis. As we enter 2025, I encourage everyone to start investing now to secure a more stable financial future.
A huge part of bengal was taken over by islam and islamists in 1947 still these type of people never speak against islamism of india and the world. Joy is not a sports journalists, he is a pseudo-secularist puppet of congress.
It is getting better and better at A century of Stories.Keep inviting of the legends .We want to hear many more stories from yester years of Indian Cricket stories around the world.I am expecting many legendary commentators
7:30 it was an inside edge not going down leg 12:18 match fixing scandal happened after this tour in India against South Africa
True..suprised they mentioned matchfixing happend before the aus series..any cricket lower knows it happened after the southAfrica and Sharjah series that happened after the aus tour..Just when Ganguly took over
Always a pleasure to hear Joy sir Looking forward to more episodes with him!!
best to listen from two best people talk about cricket after harsha
australia from ages from 60s have been producing top cricketers
Here in Australia its a tradition for dad to take there son to see the boxing day test .. thats why u see the big crowds .. cause family’s come together . People pay it forward
That's great
That's awesome...m
That sounds great.
jeff thompson and Dennis Lillee was op and we heared a lot about chandrashekar from ravi shastri
First comment.
MOLLYWOOD 💕
The 3D glasses used were not paper framed as shown-vaguely remember them being solid black plastic framed glasses-and you had to return it when leaving after the show.
informative
Have heard my parents talk fondly of their memories about this movie.
good work Cyrus
Chotan Chetan was also my first 3D movie as a viewer. I have a faint memory of reaching out to the screen to grab something, only to be slapped on the wrist by my embarrassed parents 😂. Movietime Cinema, Goregaon, now owned by PVR, called Cinemax.
Great conversation, but would love it if Cyrus allows Ayaz to speak more
Have you not watched his podcasts?? Still it is worth watching
Worth watching, ofcourse. Would be a better experience if Ayaz sir speaks more? Also true.
One correction Ayaz: There was definitely radio commentary in the India-Zimbabwe match in Tunbridge Wells. I had listened to the commentary as a 10-year-old
Rasagola is of Odisha.
