    I had the pleasure of meeting Charlie and playing against him when I was young. An absolute gentleman.

      @@manifestationmagic8978 I honestly couldn't tell you. He was in his 40s when I played against him and he was only coming off a few paces. He was a really big guy and still hit the bat pretty hard.

    Hilarious to see Tony Locke stand his ground after being out three times in 2 balls. One plumb lbw not given, followed by hit wicket and caught at slip same ball. I think Sobers was on his way up to tell him to get off just before he picked his bat up. Great delivery, unsporstman like leaving the field Locke looking like someone had taken his sweeties away.

      Absolutely! He is standing his ground with the bails lying on the ground. Peter West is asking if he has been given out caught and hasn't even noticed the obvious.

    Enjoyed Charlie Griffiths autobiography chucked around. Definitely some modern players chucked it more obviously than he did.

    Charlie action doesn't seem to reflect in a pace similar to Thommo,Akhtar or Lee

    Not possible to tell how quick he was due to the awful camera work.

      Very naive comment. No helmet, English conditions & facing express pace.
