This was a brilliant, really competitive series with great performances from all 3 sides. Ian. Chappell, Geoff Boycott and Viv Richards at their very best.
The Botham E catch got voted the winner by the commentary team , i watched this series live , 1st and last time England and the West Indies toured at the same time , so many big names from the three competing sides made it and all time classic Cricket season
In Fred's day they never went in for catches like that. It was all graft and determination. A flinty stare at the batsman and a Yorker that swung to leg then back to off and took middle stump out t'ground.
79/80 one of the best summers of cricket
1:17 ''What a magnificent catch''. Love how he say's it. Brings back memories from when I was a kid.

Randall was the real no 1.
Randall's catch a truly stunning bit of fielding surprising our Fred Trueman.

RIP David Hookes
Ritchie describes the general motors holden Gemini perfectly - a "pretty good" prize
Remember the Randall and Botham catches very well!🏟️🏏
The batsman in catch D (Hookes) is David Bairstow, father of current England batsman Jonny Bairstow.
How fast would that ball be going that Viv Richards caught!!!
I hope 7 continue the tradition of classic catches now they have the rights to test cricket and BBL
A motorcar!
Botham caught an balled my prediction
Can any noble soul retrieve the video of a catch of martin Crowe caught & bowled by Roger binny at a match in the early 80s
Saw that catch and everyone of those 8 catches on here are better. Even Binny said it was a fluke.
Did Richie say they are numbered A to H 🤣
Hexadecimal
A to h means h is the best catch?
