Wow. They made Mumbai look like Mars with that movie colour.
😂😂 this one was unique
Thanks to the red soil which is the natural to Mumbai and the west coast of India.
The credit goes to the guy who color graded n color corrected the video n made Mumbai look like Mars. Lol. All he had to do was reduce the percentage of color filter(LUT) n reduce the saturation.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
In that sense, Australians shot MadMax movie on mars 😂😂 thats temperature dude, in England, Australia, US etc temperature is cold, their equipment settings all are calibrated for cooler locations, suddenly when they go to india, bangladesh, mexico, egypt, saudi etc, the video and photos get a warm hue and that's became a norm
I worked in Mumbai for two years and remember asking my driver to show me cricket in Mumbai and he took me to all these places on the video especially where Sachin started out
When sir??
Many legends have learnt playing cricket on these grounds
Did you see any orange filter there?

This place found some of those players who won that Gabba Test
Yes❤
Absolutely true 😆😆😆👍🏻
We want USA Basketball team like dominance in the end. Nothing else matters.
@@filmymela4638 what is basketball??
@@willsocietyacceptmecauseio1276 a game which not meant for india,if we don't know what is basketball no wonder india could not manage win enough gold medeles as nation which won by a single player off some nations which know cricket is not the only game on planet,140 billions people 1 or 2 gold medals per Olympics
I would love to go to India and just play cricket. It's clearly in their blood as much as it is around the world. I love anyone that loves this game.
U r always welcome. There is something about India and Cricket, we just can't be without it q
You are welcome brother.🙂🙂
We want USA Basketball team like dominance in the end. Nothing else matters.
Yes, please visit India, We don't look like orange tint color like they showed in the documentary
Then come to Nepal. Cricket is very famous here in Nepal
Dont know their obsession with orange filter and background bollywood music!!
The orange filter is to make it look more Asian duhh
😂 Word
Dude in any movie with India they have to play that unnecessary sitar and tabla. On the side Nucleya is like bas kar abhi bc. But you have to admit it was a good episode and Mumbai cricket for many years was a pinnacle of Indian domestic cricket.
It is called Orientalism. Read Edward Said
i like how they got all those numbers to chose from..and they are still 3rd..overall an average cricket nation with awful history..and since india have made all this money..people like ravi shastri have turned arrogant
The Indian children are so smart and well mannered great country great cricketers
Sarcasm 😂😂
@@VivekSamson abhi galiyaan sune to pata chale
Just generally lovely people, but not playing off spin on a breaking wicket
Lmao 😂
Nasir Hussain is also indian for your kind info. He is basically from Chennai.
I'm already a huge fan of Indian Cricket, but after watching this I have much more respect for all the Indian Players. Imagine having to compete for one of eleven spots out of a playing population of millions! Appreciate you guys more
billions*
Trillions
Still struggle to win trophies. That's why quality matters not quantity. Aus, England performing well despite lesser population.
I was never a fan of Nasser - but for this documentary, he got on board a local bus and paid the fare - that deserves respect!
He showed poverty of india
@@shivamskyhigh7797 showed things as they are..he did not go around showing slums..
@@shivamskyhigh7797 he showed whats real. Are you ashamed of it ??
So what if he pay fare nothing special he used it and pay fare as simple as that nasser is famous rasict
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The most fun I ever had playing cricket was on a bit of wasteland in Kathmandu with some local kids who called themselves Kathmandu Universal. They all took Indian cricketers' names and sledged each other like crazy. Grass-roots cricket at its most enjoyable.
I had a team called Himalayan Fireballs 😂
It's very sad that Nepal cricket team didn't qualify for any world cup. 😭😭😭😭 i wish Nepali cricket team to became as good as India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan
@@sazzy9388 lmfao or "balls of fury"
I hope your last name is not Headley.....that would be a dampner :)
Kathmandu universal kp oli is the captain
The same filter was used in the movie EXTRACTION too. 🤦
Hitman 2 had the same filter for Mumbai as well
That was too yellow-greenish filter in Extraction
Hollywood uses the same filter to depict Mexico and other Latin American countries it’s kind of annoying.
I see most of the Hollywood films use this kind of filter to show the pictures more rugged..But good catch @Amit
😂😂😂 Bingo
Lived in goa India for 18 months loved it , go back every feb , didn’t get to go this year , can’t wait for next
Me too from ponda Goa where are you from
Goa is also so much in sports ..all kinds of sports played are in goa
Was everything orange 🤣
I'm a native of Goa glad to hear that, do ping me if you looking for a stay or to purchase a property in Goa
But in goa football is more popular i think
I've seen cricket on that maidan and the talent on show both batting and bowling is astonishing. How does India ever lose a game !
Exactly, as an indian it's so disappointing to see India getting knocked out in an ICC event even after the talent and potential we have in cricket 😐
He smash double century in quarter final,triple century in semi final and again a triple century in the finals in between he played a match where he scored 170 odd. He is none other than The Greatest 'Sachin Tendulkar'.
Naseer : How many slips do you need?
This is India Man!!! that's funny
4 for leggie brother
Knicked and caught
Visited Bombay a few years ago I have never seen so many cricket matches being played in this park absolutely fantastic
Very impressed with how articulate Nasser Hussain has become since retirement from Cricket. He has grown into an excellent, inciteful and impartial Cricket commentator and analyst.
So much Orange in the video, legends say he is a bhakt
Let them say that they are still good for nothing 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Will say*
bhakts bleed orange
British and American shows always show Asian countries as dusty, yellow and orange. The color code us to make our stuff feel poor. Check any western movie, every Asian country is shown like this.
He looks like Putin🤣🤣🤣😂
Putin+The Rock 😂
It's hard to find a Nasser Hussain video with out this comment
Putin + Mads Mikkelsen!
ikr
It’s Nasser hussian he was a pro cricketer for England
What's the distance between the two?
Rest of the World: 70 KM
India: 2:30 hours.
@Donald J. Trump not in india though,especilly mumbai
no everyone does this
only mumbai :P
Beacuse they don't know exact distance and they don't even care about distance in the city which is always moving . Only thing that matters is Time .
😂😂😂
The UK needs the equivalent of maidans. Loads of free opportunity to play cricket at a young age.
To be honest cricket isn't really played in the big cities in uk there are stadiums but not like maidans its mainly football cricket is usually played in few outskirts countryside areas here and there
Cricket isn’t popular at all in the UK. Football is like a religion
@@haridj8532 it is popular just football is another level of popular
@@haridj8532 "Isn't popular at all" is just not true
I've played on Azad Maidan fairly and I can assure you all that you're not just concentrating the match you're playing in but the other matches around as well. You don't want to get hit from the ball from other matches.
Same here bro,Instead I have played at cross maidan for 3 years. Could recall those moments either to watch the ball or to watch your back :)
Bro 😂😂😂😂😂😂.. So true... Even in small grounds of mumbai ... We have to be very careful 😂😂😂
Lol, I remember fielding at long on at Azad Maidan for my match but was around slip for another pitch. 1-2 times ball whizzed past my ear. Whenever you hear anyone shout "Watch Watch" just cover your head and sit down.
😂😂 true
It happens all most of all grounds in cities. Only village and some small town guys are lucky to have multiple ground options to play.
Just love Nasser Hussain's infectous love for the game..
He's been paid to do it, it's a job!!!
@@maxdexter2690 A job he does with a passion that you don't see too often.
Side note - it's telling when a short documentary like this one is produced by Sky with Nass hosting it, rather than something by BCCI with, say, Ravi Shastri hosting it.
@@arvindhmani06I understood ur message. Very true indeed
I remember he called Indian players donkey in his commentary during match
can you ever imagine seeing this in the UK? Never. We play cricket, india lives ,breaths , eats and dreams cricket
The religion above all the religions in India. Ironical ehh, inherited it from the Britishers
Still England, Australia perform better than India because they have better fitness and quality.
Wow 🤩 Mumbai looks so vibrant and yet historic at the same time. Wish if I can visit the land of my ancestors some day.
Wellcome anytime. Mesmerising city.
Your ansestors came and bombed taj hotel 13 years ago...thank god government now don't provide Visas to you people..

I am a sri Lankan, absolute got wow with this episode about cricket in mumbai , otherwise the involvement Nassir was brilliant as a british cricketers he did it really well.
How these Indians are so much confident in speaking English...love from pak❤
@Kalyan Basu oh come on man...grow up...I was trying to create some positivity between people of two countries but you had just slammed it..I am very disappointed with ur this act.....and remember father's day (ct 17 final winner Pakistan )you have started so I will end this😜
School se bhai. Yeh toh cricketers hai.. Jo aage padhai karta h.. Aur b ache hote h English mein.. Sab kuch English me hota h humara education. Kuch states ko chorke.
Yahan pe english nhi jante ho toh har jagah prblm ata hay..isliye sab english seekhte hay taki govt job ,interviews etc me help ho
Therr are private schools which teach english brother.
Colonial legacy plus sense of superiority of english language plus english education is de facto national language.
Three different strokes....A forward defensive, A pull and a square cut by three different kids were no way different but were easily as good as or may be better than best in the world for that age group.✌️✌️✌️🇮🇳🇮🇳 Love you Mumbai...The Mom of cricket.🙏
Nasser, my favorite commentator and presenter, Nasser's dad did some great work at the grassroots for Illford and Essex cricket, i remember the respect he commended in the Essex cricketing circles back in the day.
The quality of this episodes(minus the orange filter and cliched music) is absolutely top notch. There is a touch of class in all things which are covered by Sky Cricket. Nas as usual is great to watch and hear, really shows his love for the game.
Naseer covered this perfectly ! Showed the true essence of what cricket and Azad Maidan as a symbol. Produced amazing players
Reminds me of the show on Netflix called Selection Day! Good cricket show.
Really amazing Indian cricketing culture 🏏💯
Forget ur field positions
Nas...
Being a pace bowler I have to run through the slips of the match played on the adjacent wicket.
I remember after having bowled 7-8 overs in the baking heat got exhausted and other random fielders loitering and breaking my run up. Made me sooooo angry!
I am a cricket bat manufacturer, every time I see players playing, I am searing my one's in there hands..... We will make them for you all again proudly.... Work hard biddies
Prithvi: I used to stay at Virar.. which is far away from Mumbai
Naseer: how far.?
Prithvi: 2.5 hours..
*I think India is the only country where distance is measured in time*
No. You're just naive.
He aske him how much time it took
That's true 🤣...bt actually if u think it's the right way to tell the distance...becoz u can travel 70km in 2hrs bt sometimes if u have to travel through crowded roads...it would take 2 hr to even travel 20km
Even I live in virar but zero resemblance to cricket
I think most of the world do that
Used to travel from Pune to play at Azad Maidan. Coach would pay 200 Rs per game, the Deccan Queen was 90 Rs for a reserved seat, 20 Rs earning every weekend in summer. I was the boss!!!
Demn 🔥
Man u have my respect
I have played at Azad Maidan and cross maidan, the ball swings in morning and evenings due to low high tide of the sea and at noon it spins square, you gotta be tough to play at these grounds. I could barely walk after a days play, great days and wonderful memories of these grounds.
Loved India when I visited. Travelled for 2-3 years. And loved spending time on the maidans.
Anything shot outside of USA or Britain
Creators: "put on the yellow filter or else how would they know its a developing country"
Lol that's right these people are like if you give finger they will take your whole hands
And put some random hindi songs that doesn't really have to make any sense🤣🤣
If BCCI ever think about making documentaries on cricketers, administrators or on the sport, I hope they find a place for Ravi Shastri and his iconic voice. Because this is were he belongs.
After two large whisky round ravi Shastri can do anything for you
@@rbcl0072 😂
@@rbcl0072 Hahaha 😅😅 Dude that was funny
Harsha and ravi duo would be great
"Keep dreaming and keep chasing them cuz dreams do come true"
Jemimah Rodrigues
(She's an inspiration undoubtedly)
It's a Sachin Tendulkar quote , he says that in his last test match speech
This brought tears to my eyes. Nostalgia overload ❤️
Enjoyed every second of this. Keep more of these coming from Nasser Hussain. When Nasser will retire as commentator he will be remembered as one of the best commentators in the history of cricket. I see him in the same league with Tony Greg, Henry Blofeld & co.
18:34 "Hello youngster!"
"He's too young to recognize me" LOOOL
Nice to see Nasser and Ravi speaking 😄
😂😂😂 remember that heated chatter
😂😂💀
17:19 that was heartwarming
What a great video!!These kind of visits by cricket legends really inspire the local cricketers❤❤
Thanks for the accurate color representation of Mumbai, Sky Sports. Not discriminative at all.
Lol how is that discrimination
@@cooper512 Exactly how British are you to not understand or did you never go to high school?
Arkaprava Mridha we don’t learn about India in school. Why would we?
@@arkapravamridha3859 still shithole
@@hcr2alex714 Your mind more than anything else
Nasser is a legend, love the bloke.
Great video - thank you so much. One of the small pleasures in my life is when I work on an Indian-crewed ship....just to talk about the game with other guys who love it..it's a treat!
4:23 Dog trying hard to survive in Mars.
Hahaha
@@omieyadav638 it isnt funny you have to feel sorry for the dog
@@itsrmc6517 sorry for what
Why the video is so dull orange ?
It looks like shot with 1960s camera
I would gather amongst other things it's the awful pollution. As a resident in South Korea, you notice bad pollution days at an eye-blink. But in India especially around Mumbai their pollution is awful every single day. AQICN (air quality index) goes up to 999, India regularly maxes out at that. Exercising outside, with no mask, for an hour, is the same as smoking 60 cigarettes.
That's such a great story! Loved it..
Nasser - Hey youngster. He's too young to know me!.. Absolute gold
You are just too nice....keep up
Madhav Apte, the legend! I was lucky to have seen him play against Ajit Agarkar XI in an exhibition match a few years ago, when he was well into his eighties! Sadly, both legends are no more.
That is absolutely amazing. It blows me away how much Indians love cricket. So good see. I hope they can keep those place going. Hopefully money from the IPL can invest.
when you are young, you dont care of sun, dust, sweat anything..... all you want is to play.
18:23! This is India man!!!
My childhood Mumbai memories refreshed, thanks Nasser
All the mumbaj great Shashtri,Tendulkar,Kambli...Gavasker golden words of struggle and fame.
Hindu gymkhana and cross maidan were my home grounds.. unfortunately you didn't cover shivaji park... getting nostalgic.. winter morning in cross maidan is nothing short of heaven for a cricketer
18:06 Sounds remarkably like the conditions I played for most of my cricket playing career in the UK. Park pitches, no changing facilities, no toilets, no access to water and even drunks/drugged wandering on demanding to 'bat'!
That's exactly how chaos our lives are yet we have the clarity of our destiny .
Beautiful India
These mumbai maidans are very lovely to play, i love playing in cross maidan at early morning
When Nasser Hussain looks more like Yogi Adityanath, you know something is wrong.
Learn From Netflix's Cricket Fever . They Showed Mumbai the way it is & not with this Fu*kall colour Grading m
I love the way how Nasir Hussain describes anything ... True cricket ambassador..
I have played in Every maidan every Gymkhana they showed in the video
The Azad Maidan lost 7 good pitches because of Metro 'WIP'.
Seeing the curators of cross maidan 'Varun, Ajay, Vinod bhai' etc. 17:31
It reminded all the beautiful memories of Cricket I have played at this maidan.
Thank you so much for this video.
Bring in the old Orange filter for the subcontinent now even though it`s not a movie.
I really feel robbed of the real picture when they do this filter thing.
It's awful, isn't it? The history of 'orange filter' is using it to make countries look 'poor' and 'dirty'. India is lush and green. This is a really bad take.
They do this for every countries lying in tropic of cancer or in equator like Mexico, Brazil, etc
In European countries you'll hardly see sun.
It’s all of the pollution
@@stellwyn 3rd Grade Sarcasm .
Mumbai infact is very green...
2:46 thought Nasser had broken another finger, well bowled young man, keep him honest
Thanks Sky for coming up with this episode. Gave that sense about how Mumbai is home of cricket in India.
Cricket takes me to a different world, specially these documentaries
So thankful that someone has made this documentary.
What's up with the orange filter?
Pollution
Orientalism
Gareebi dikhani hai bhai
Sahi bol rahe hai Hindustani doston
Nasser Hussain is a great pic for documentaries..would love to see more of him
thank you for a lot of effort . cant wait more to watch cricket returing
The last 4 min of the video he played on the pitch on which me and my brother used to play for the United cricketers club just ahead of the National cricket club where Nasser Hussain met that curator 🔥. This brings back so many memories of childhood when I dreamt of playing for India ❤️
Colour Grader: How much Orange do you want in this video?
.
Sky Sports: Yes.
.
Perhaps the fact that Nasser Hussain looks like a traffic light should've raised some alarm bells...
Where's the green? lol
SKY Sports jaundice special. So much effort to make it look poor.
Very bad
@Akshay Vara There is no official colour of India.
This is the same as what the western media does when they show Mexico and South American nations. And they do the same for the sub-continent.
covered really well..good job Nasser!
Nas you are amazing for making this video. Being Indian I never knew this much cricket played in a day in Mumbai.
Loved this video sir .you have always appreciated indian cricketers and India's cricket culture. Waitng for more such videos
Watching this i realized we have turned Karachi into the Umar Akmal of Mumbai’s Kohli. This video was awesome. Love the mumbai vibes.
Kohli is from delhi.. And btw.. Can u explain what u r trying to say?
Moto afridi
Tu yalgaar reaction vali bas cmmnt section chalu karde...phir yaha pe love batne aa😡
Dynamo is also from mumbai
kohli from delhi
1:24 what a BGM ❤️
I just love hussain saab ,what a wonderful orator
This is amazing, by the way these gymkhanas aren’t just cricket clubs, they are restaurants, cafes, gyms, wedding halls. I got married at The Islam gymkhana last year 🙏🏽❤️
Great work SKY SPORTS CRICKET, you guys just made my day.
dont know about the day but they surely made rasna out of India
Yeah, I too like the soft drink Rasna.
Why dafaq can't u guyz just comment on the positive side of the video....instead of criticizing the only negative aspect of this story.
God of discipline and as well as cricket....you're such a great inspiration and pride of our nation...who else..none other than sachin sir...
What a great programme hosted by a great anchor, who was also one of the greatest and grittiest players to play for England.
The travelling, the bus ride, the walking. Just like the country days, these were amazing days, amazing
please keep these kinda documentaries coming along.. it's good for the game
9:10 B S Yediyurappa in the frame...
No 😂
Made my day with this !
Too much talent
So many features of Indian cricketers
U will find on this maidan
Never seen Nasser show so much humility
Lee Haseley
The process of ageing and the rough & tumble of real life experiences are the sources of humility not just Nasser's but of almost all human beings.
One exception appears to be Atherton who almost certainly didn't know the meaning of humility...he was always an absolute
mediocre cricketer, who persisted in overestimating his cricketing skills & abilities.
I suspect, as England's opening batsman & captain, Atherton fancied himself as a modern day version of that great, elegant, humble, & successful opening batsman & captain of England ( 1951-56), the Yorkshireman, Sir Len Hutton ( Test batting average 52...highest score 364 at The Oval 1938 Vs
Bradman's mighty Australia
....won the Ashes 1953-54 tour of Australia etc against overwhelming odds)
Yet, when Atherton retired he had nothing to shout either about his Test captaincy or his batting average. Even after retirement, his lack of humility & bias showed up as a commentator ( both on Sky Sports TV & The Telegraph ), especially blatantly in his views of Indian cricketers( including Sachin Tendulkar !).
In his early days, Atherton's mentor was the England captain & a great opening batsman, Graham Gooch, who had a lot to shout about his achievements for England, yet he always spoke with humility. It
seems, Atherton didn't learn much from Graham Gooch. What a wasted opportunity.
5/7/20
@@rajnikantchande2677 Atherton's career might have tumbled into mediocrity but his columns are excellent. Much more insightful than any other cricket writer going around.
Excellent ! liked it even more due to Nasser Hussain. Sachin is love 😍
I've enjoyed watching this so much. I want to go to Mumbai and enjoy the passion for cricket in person !
Watching the footages of Mumbai traffic and Azad Maidan while the city is suffering the pandemic, it gives sadness and hope at the same time.
MAY MUMBAI COME ALIVE AGAIN! ❤
When was the last time Ravi Shastri had a smile in his life ??
He spoiled the video
Every evening..after 8pm..😂
When Dhoni got him stuff from military canteen
7:30 man..... that cover drive....wow
With due respect to Mumbai & its cricketers; the best of Indian cricketing talent is in small tows & villages.
I have lived through out India and played everywhere I lived and was really astounded by the quality of talent that each village has.
No wonder that current Indian team has many guys from smaller places. Hope this trend continues and youngsters from more smaller places get opportunities; if that happens India will be a world beater for atleast 15+ years.
Sublime. Excellent to the power 100. Just awesome.
