- Nearly 40 years after making its debut at Lord's, India won its first test match and series in England. This historic test victory was due to an outstanding performance by India's spinners, led by BS Chandrasekhar.
One of the great memories from my childhood. Also, the series win in WI, then 406/4, and 83 WC. Ajit Wadekar was a great man who is not celebrated enough.
No helmets... No securities.... No fencing... No fear.... Golden days
Still now I like Bhagvat Chandrashekhar, Bishan Singh Bedi, Erapalli A.Prasanna, S.Venkatraghavan, Sunil Manohar Gavaskar, Ajit L.Wadekar, Gundappa R.Vishwanath, Eknath Sokar, Karsan घावरी and other cricketers of India team of 1970's and 1980's decades. Really what a nice India team.
Excellent post.
Keep going
The crucial catch was that of Edrich by Engineer off Bedi - Engineer picked up the ball with his foot to complete the catch
Chandra had a very quick arm action
Thanks for the amaging and wonderful footage.
winning test "series" not just test match
Eknath Solkar was the best forward short leg fielder of his time
One of the very best India has seen
Superb filder Eknath Solkar
2:31 Look who gets out. The one who knows nothing. John Snow.
Chandra Sekhar ji laggan movie Mai kachra the 😂😂
Bit of aggressive racism at the end there from the umpires
The way the umpire ran after the players for the stumps. 😂😂😂
That's how much they valued things.
There was no telecast those days, only radio commentary, and I can still recall the joy when Abid Ali hit the boundary.Was a 11 year old kid then but seems like yesterday.We were all so tense around the radio.
Me too was reading in class-III
Me too I was 29 yrs old
Sir can you share your memories of listening to the news during the war in December 1971? How were the people feeling when Pakistan attacked our air fields? How was the enthusiasm among people after victory would like to listen from you
Glorious win. I remember that evening while coming back home with my father saw some cricket lovers forced a pan shop owner to switch the nob 0f his radio to shortwave mode(those days abroad sports matches broadcast through shortwave radio station) to listen running commentary of oval test match and we stopped walking, when Great Abid ALI hits the balls through cover region everyone shouted and the panwalla was shouting and crying. "Jeet gaya'. What a great moment ! thanks for this video.
I was 11 years old and we were glued to to the transistor. When each England wicket fell, we knew a wicket was gone when we can't hear the commentator due to crowd's huge noise. I vividly remember Chandra's bowling. What a performance! That was true cricket. You brought back my nostalgia sir.
No fuss, no big bucks, played pure passion and patriotism - I listened to this victory on BBC radio and cheered each wicket. Mind blowing performance by Chandra!! What a day!! Real and true winners!!
I still remember the best bowling by Chandrasekhar in 2nd inning and superb batting by Farooq Engineer in both the innings.
Historic Indian win at the Oval, Credit to the Great Bhagwat Chandrasekhar and GR Vishwanath/ Engineer

These were real cricketers, fearless and committed.
Indeed! 👍
Looks like John Snow knew nothing in front of Chandra
Hats off to Eknath Solkar standing without wearing a helmet n taking great catch.
Solkar was great filder at short leg but no much credit given to him
Amazing footage...what an historic occasion.
Thank you for the video! Pure Nostalgia :-)

Who was here after india test win at oval in 2021
I don't even though Indian team had series victories in the West Indies, England , New Zealand in the 70s how were they considered perenteders and outsiders in 1983 world cup. How biased the white cricketing nations were.
Test matches and ODI are differnt game though. India's performance in World Cup in 75 & 79 were poor. Also, the spin quartet that helped india win test series in England & West Indies had retired till 1983 world cup.
So you think that the West Indies would have had a different view from the "white cricketing nations"? There was very little to suggest that India were a major contender at the 1983 world cup-in fact, the biased white nations that you refer to would have regarded the West Indies as virtual certainties, which would seem to contradict your view that skin colour was a factor in assigning potential winners. Well done to India in overcoming those doubts but any cricket fan no matter what nationality would have regarded their triumph as a major shock.
In fact Kim Hughes, the Aussie skipper said even before the first match that he considered India to be the dark horses who could surprise everyone. Prophetic!!
@@Clisonics yes. Correct.
