Michael Holding Takes Us Back To 1983 | Is He The Morgan Freeman of Cricket? | BwC S2E3
8 Lakhs+ Views
"He's one of my all time favourites.
Today I sit down with Mikey to talk about the glorious era of West Indies cricket, and attempt to convince him to like T20 cricket a little bit." - GK
Today we listen to "Whispering Death". No, we aren't visiting any haunted place, we are breakfasting with the Jamaican bowling legend, from the era of the invincible West Indies - Michael Holding. We can point out his achievements to you, but that is for other channels to do. We bring stories, and we hear it from Mikey as he sips something that rhymes with uhhh...gum. Let's hear what his headmaster told him in his school days, how would he dial a call from Bombay to Jamaica, how fast bowlers can bowl even faster and how he got the name - Whispering Death.
This episode tastes best with Chai and butter toast. Happy watching!

Water is for Fish Maann. Legend.
Akshay Sharma Virendra Sehwag's type answer hehe
He said, "Water is for Fisherman", but Lengend, nonetheless.
Harsh Desai Entertainment Nah dude. Re Listen :) He said Water is for Fish Man. Atleast that's what everyone else heard in the comments section :) But yeah Legend Nonetheless.
Water is for fish man!! i tried that last night.. but put soda after that 😂😂😂
Lol loved that dialogue 😂
Michael Holding just provided the guideline to live life..."smell the roses. don't just pass them"...
SOID! THE! CRICKET! (QUICKIE)!!! MICHAEL!!! HOLDING!!!
Michael Holding has the most iconic voice in all of cricket universe. So glad we could get to know him. Thanks pal!
Truth. One of the most iconic voices ever in Cricket.
Agreed. He is the one who makes “Ashes”’ more fun to watch.
I love his heavy voice
He is the Morgan Freeman of Cricket Comedy

BeerBiceps Missed your subscriber meet up😢😢
Love your content😍 Get well soon💐
expected ur cricket
Gaurav Kapur - For me T20 is like a blockbuster film.
Michael Holding - No it's a cartoon. They will never get nominated for an academy award.
Gaurav Kapur - Some cartoons do though.
Michael Holding - Not the people who act in them😎
Best part of the video for me
Same here....!!!!
Sums up ipl.
Thug life
Absolute gold..I chuckled out loud at that part.He so quickly and wisely laid down the answer.
An argument where Gaurav got TKOed
Loved it when he gave it back to Gaurav, by saying that the people who act in Cartoons don't get nominated for Academy Awards....What a Legend...What a Brain...#Respect
Well, Academy does have a nomination categories for animation movies
Vivek Dasgupta do awards really matter??? I don't think so
He clearly stated, "But not the people(characters) who act in them".
SOID! THE! GREAT-EST!!! (MIC/AUDIO)!!!
Holding on IPL, "I'll watch when the cricket is on"
Savage.
I think it is on the T20 format general.
Transformation v1.0 holding savage ipl sewage
lokeshz but he still commentates
Pretty much everyone knows it , half the Indians watch it for entertainment purposes & just getting lost from your responsibilities & problems in your life , that is sports in general and specially T20 format , I mean nobody India watches X games & ice skating but people in Nordic countries , Canada & Russia its soo big .
@@kaho2cool most of Indian hate IPL because it's a India brand and we Indians have inferiority complex .
And same Indian love other T20 competition.
BTW ask CSK or other team fans do they watch IPL for fun
He's good man in arguments..... he is best.. test match is like life
Totally agree....
Test is real cricket
SOID! L-I-KE!!! (AL-WAYS)!!! THE! (L-EGENDARY)!!! MICHAEL!!! HOLDING!!! (A-L-IASE)!!! SOID! THE! (WHISPERING! DEATH)!!! SPOKEN! (E-L-OQUENCE)!!! SOID! (KNOW-L-EDGE!!! ON! CRICKET! SOID! IS! L-I-KE! THE! (WHISPERING! DEATHS)!!! PIONEERING! EX-PRESS!!! SOID! EB!!! SOID! (BOW-L-ING)!!! IN! 1970s! INTERNATIONAL! TEST! MATCH! CRICKET! SOID! IS! SOID! (L-EGENDARY)!!!
Even Veritasium, who doesn't even follow or understand cricket compared (Test) cricket to life with how it ebbs and flows and how a game meandering to nowhere suddenly forces out a result in the last few moments.
He is so alive and clear.
Love this episode
great sense of humour
Episode takeaways 1. Test cricket reigns over other formats. 2. Morgan Freeman of Cricket universe - Michael Holding 3. Water is for fish man!
On point!
6:06
“People who want everything instantly-instant gratification, are not living.”
SOID! THE! (EB)!M-AN!!! MICHAEL!!! HOLDING!!!
Words to live by.
The best thing about this video, so many words of wisdom from the great man...
"Common sense and natural thinking is more important"
"You're not going to be on top of the world everyday in your life"
"Instant gratification is not living"
"Life is a compromise"
"If you're worth your salt you welcome challenges"
So far, the best video of "Breakfast With Champions".. Looking forward for a show with Viv Richards
Not just pace but brains too. This quartet was truly the bowling "Attack". I rest my case.
Teacher : Everyone should bring their own water bottles from tomorrow
Backbenchers : Water is for fish man 😎😎😎
Michael Holding still shines with his wise speeches that can give any naive speakers a run for their money... In this case, it vividly appears that the host does not have the aura to befit and share the screen with the best of the best...
Michael holding was savage on T20 vs test cricket debate. This show is awesome Gaurav.. never seen interview like on BWC.
If the interview would have been 15mins more, Gaurav would be in tears!!! Michel bowled him out of the park😂😂😂
And that's why we call him *Whispering Death* 😂😂
After watching this I feel as if the quality of personalities has diminished over the years this man is so crystal clear and articulate take Sir Viv too for example and Mr Gavaskar they havr such amazing aura.
So true
I just love really love these episodes with legends. Good work Gaurav.
Each second of this worth gold ...I loved micky's reaction when he was adjusted LBW at 1983 final :)) ..best 14:37 at BWC
The so called greatest Aussie team of the 2000s will remain in the shadow of the greatest team ever to play cricket - The Windies of the 70s and 80s.
A Gentle bunch of hardworking cricketers who were brutal, but with their game and not with their words. True cricketers.
Aus was better..accept it or not.
There udnt hv been that aussie team if the windies of the ate 70s nd early 80s were around...suggest some more research, brother...
Superbly well written & researched...IMO Ponting would have got himself killed with that initial front foot press...Gilchrist would be the only one IMO who could have had consistent success, and Steve Waugh would definitely have fought hard, but without the same degree of success he had after 1994ish...Just my opinion though (assuming both teams at their prime, and not the WI after 1984, when Roberts retired & Mikey had only 3 more years of tests left in him)...
thiruvetti
Aman not compared to the earlier West Indies though
great man..and he is almost right everything about the modern cricket..they way he put his point about cricket its jist unbelievable..gaurab u mess with the wrong guy bro dont try to convince him again about t20.. best episode ever..
Gaurav is your typical dumb blonde tya guy ... the wrong anchor for this show .the guy makes money from T20 and tries to shove his opinion down the players throat
No he doesn't, he was just playing devil's advocate and making a few points. This is his own show, you can't demand a new anchor for his own show. It's a light hearted humorous conversation, not a serious interview, and people like you take it so seriously.
I so enjoyed that interview ' I could listen to him for hours. Holding is
my hero
It be fun sitting with this legend over a drink and hear his life narratives.
What a player! Michael Holding!!! unforgettable. T-20's is great people love it, but test matches are a like a royal treat!! Test is test!! my favourite form of cricket.
70's West Indies was awesome... Accent of Holding is rarest.... Love the episode 👍... Make episode with Gavaskar
He already did with Gavaskar
This one video has taught me more about life in 15 minutes, than any other video / book. Wow.
I consider him the best critic of the game and a genuine ambassador of game. And of course he is the hardest to impress
The most iconic voice in the Cricket history. They really had a great team in 70 and 80's. (Richie Benaud,Michael Holding,Tony Greig=Golden voice for every generation)
Cartoon V/s Life. What a comparison. This made me love TEST cricket more. Hail down.
Any uncut or Behind the scenes available ?
Best part :
I have no problem people looking back for data and videos, but when it takes over from common sense, obviously it’s too much !’
On spot ☝🏻☝🏻
SOID! (G,O,A,T)!!! SOID! (MIC/AUDIO)!!!

"Water is for fish man"
All the drinkers out there that must be on ur t-shirt
Amusing man 😎
One of the most impactful episode of BWC...Highly inspirational Holding Sir...True gem of Cricket...Hope Current generation understands the essence of Test Cricket in a better way....Hoping now, not only they will smell the roses but also nurture them...
Legend for many reasons. Look at the way he talks, he doesn't talk garbage, always a sensible man
One of the best episodes of BwC for sure!! You can't help but love Mikey after this episode!!
Man, what a run-up he had! Just calmly running down to the crease as if he had nothing to do with the world, and then deliver a rocketing delivery zipping past the batsman!
This was a treat to watch, great to hear from a legend like Michael Holding and his views on Test Cricket, " Test cricket is like Life, everyday is different every session is different, one day/session you are up the next you are down but the better man/team wins".
I have always been a fan of fast bowling , a lot of people watch cricket for sixes and fours but I love to see that timber breaking.
Please do some more videos with the legendary fast bowlers.
This is indeed the best of the best of BWC. What a wonderful man he is.
Everything came out of Michael Holding's mouth was highly philosophical! And I loved every second of this episode. 💙
you are the Morgan Freeman of cricket, just nailed it .
what a legend mike, a true champ
This is absolute Gold. What wit, what charm, what intelligence, and of course what a voice! The legends from back then are very smart people really. These interviews should be at least 30 mins. Loved it though, so many savage moments. The best one yet in BWC.
After hearing water is for fish man..Ravi Shastri be like bol woh rahe hai par shabd humare hai 😂😂
😂
Gaurav, Man, can you make these a little longer? Maybe with extended (30 min) episodes whenever you can. It's a real pleasure to listen to someone like Michael. So people either pick the shorter interviews or the longer ones, but there's obviously a trade-off for video popularity when you do Part 1. and Part 2.
1:28 that was absolutely fantastic!🤩♥️
Classic 😂🇯🇲
Icc pointed for Michael holding to stop criticising umpires.He explains every thing in simplified n accurate manner.such a legend.
15 minutes well spent. Can't remember the last time I heard such a soothing voice. Great interview. Keep them coming. Subscribed.
I will never forget seeing this man as a young kid during the 1996 World Cup. My first cricket match in a stadium was a World Cup game being played between Zimbabwe and West Indies at Lal Bahadur Shastri Stadium, Hyderabad. My dad and I walk in to the stadium, heading towards our seats I encounter this giant of a man, and until then I don’t think I’d ever come across anyone built like Micheal Holding. I didn’t even know who he was, but Dad being the cricket fan that he is waxed lyrical about one of the greatest bowlers to have graced the game. I’m just so privileged to have seen this man in person. Whispering Death.
What a legend! *****Major respect, Micheal Holding***** Great bowler, cricketer and human being. I always love listening to him speak in that beautiful, crisp Jamaican accent!
There have been so many talk shows with cricketers but this one effortlessly manages to be different from all of them. Big thumbs up!
I have read somewhere that Micheal Holding,Andy Roberts were insane fast bowlers in those days.I came up here just to check this "Legend".But, seriously I would have missed a great character.He is a character indeed that existing like he crack punches,can be funny and influential and as well as motivates.
And He is totally "Morgan Freeman "of cricket.Thank you GK.
Holding.....STUD MUFFIN !! I found this interview FACINATING TY xoxo Love from Australia.
I love his voice . Fantastic voice
no water for me ...water is for fish..hahaha thug life
greatest, no doubt "Whispering Death" with a great sense of humour
SOID! THE! (L-EGENDARY)!!! MICHAEL!!! HOLDING!!!
The best thing about this show is there is no fake introductions..Aaj hai hamare sath mahan bowler Michael holding blah blah...Loved all the videos on this channel.
If you truly follow cricket and understand the importance of test cricket, you cannot argue that this was the best and the most interesting interview in the entire series.
Dope. Legend. What a personality. I wanted to listen to him for hours . you don't get such wisdom everywhere these days especially on the computer screen or T.V or Movie theatre. Great vibes!
80k views for the legend? and lot of garbage around TH-cam gets million views!
..for shame!
English is the issue people who knows him mostly old people
Because he wants people to watch test cricket...but now a days ppl watch t20..
SOID! THE! CRICKET! (PACE)!M-AN!!! SOID! MICHAEL!!! HOLDING!!!
@@travelspoint7199 watch all three formats
7:15 People go to McDonals as well.!! :D
the next line " is that food? " great ..
Absolutely adore this man. Classy, old school and spot on with his assessment of life and cricket. This is how you live life, without making it too complicated.
This is such a brilliant series bringing our cricketing heroes to share their journeys, memories and historical anecdotes. I'm in completely awe of them and the lessons they teach are sure an inspiration for each of us, cricketer or not. Thank you.
This 15 minutes is honest and real what he said is true it's heart warming do more interviews with west indies greats
I saw the documentary-‘Fire in Babylon’ and man,im telling you,that team of windies not just dominated the game but infused life and national aspirations to the game.
Holding,Andy Roberts,Colin Croft,Joel Garner and their ferocious batting line up made them invincible for more than a decade,later joined by Malcolm Marshall,Curtley Ambrose,Courtney Walsh.
I m big fan of his voice.... After watching 83 movie...I m fan of his bowling too
I swear I heard this like a podcast and loved it!!!!! Two of the best voices on cricket currently :)
This is incredible! Very insightful. What a legend! 😍😊
Thank you for getting the legend on the show. I too think that test match is the real thing. What a brilliant run-up MH had.
This has got to be the best episode of BwC. What a great personality!! I love it how Holding connects test cricket to life. Such an intelligent man.
man....how awesome is Sir Michael Holding...never get to see this part on TV.
this interview deserves more views...great man.. #LEGEND
“They don’t stop and smell the roses.”
Found this channel "BwC" today on 27th May '17. Really enjoyed the concept. And finished all episodes in a row. Watched Mr. Holding's interview in last, knew it would be best!!! Good job team.
Michael Holding has a great clarity of thought. And in bowling he was like a rolls Royce
He's the Morgan Freeman of cricket. Amazing Gaurav! :) Was great listening to great Mike Holding.
One may not agree with him. But He explained test cricket in really interesting way.
What a delightful interview. Great to know Michael Holding a little better than just whispering death or the voice in the commentary box. He is an amazing personality !!
An epic episode. Lots of learning in just 15minutes....Legendary!!
This deserves much more views. Underrated epsiode
Test match is like life! Amazing evaluation!
This guy is a true legend... the more and more I see/hear of him, the more do I like him... such a free spirit....
Keep such stuff coming, Gaurav...
Love all of these legendary icons talking about the game... Thanks for the videos... Keep up the good work... Cheers!!.
One of the best interviews of my favorite cricket Legend Sir Michael Holding
After the one with Sunil Gavasker g 😊
He is hitting sixes on all your Yorkers.... best channel for cricket lovers...😊
A witty conversation...enjoyed it throughly... it's one of the best channels on TH-cam with lots of potential! Loved the parallel philosophies drawn between life and cricket...
The best episode so far. More serious intense cricket discussion. Will be happy to watch longer version of ur episodes, Gaurav & team.
I can watch this kind of interviews for hours !!
True. Food for the soul in today's world.
Michael Holding - a legend in his own right. A true icon of the golden era of West Indies cricket. Its always a pleasure to listen to your insights on cricket. Can't agree more that Test cricket is "life" whereas T20 is a "cartoon" :) Stay well, god bless you, Sir!!
Such purity in thoughts. Would love to have listen to him for some more time. This episode made us to look life in a different way
This man is a legend. His intellect is something. Hands down. Love you sir.
For me being a De Villers fan, best part is 9:20
Water is for fish maann😎
From 6:47 to 7:30 , that conversation about t20, wow!! I was already a big fan of this man, that conversation made me become one again!
Always loved and respected his bowling.
Now I love and respect his knowledge too ❤️
Look at the simplicity of clothing. Legendary.
"If you're worth your salt you'll welcome challenges" - Michael Holding (upon being asked how he'll fancy bowling at AB360!); Holding is extremely witty here! And oh by the way what a phenom!
Thoroughly enjoyed the conversation... it was great hearing about his views about test cricket and fast bowlers in particular.
I've had an wonderful time watching the series esp. the ones featuring Bishan Singh Bedi, Yuvi and now, Michael Holding. Wish you the best for the rest of the series, hope to see many more awesome and witty gentlemen on the show with you.
Thanks & Cheers!
one of the best episodes of BWC, straight out of the heart. One thing I really love about West Indian Cricket Team (maybe the old gold one), they really speak their mind, no holding back, and then it's the time when you really connect !! Thanks, Mikey and Gaurav.
Talking about lethal fast bowlers :D
''Playing less cricket''. what an answer given by sir michael holding.
you just amazed me with your damn good explanation about getting a fast bowlers. You said things in a very practical manner.
What a gem..words of wisdom by mike ...never get dese real people in todays life
this interview went as quick as his deliveries, man he is charismatic.
Thanks gaurav for bringing us such amazing stuff . Great men talking about our great game ! Wudnt have been possible to get such insights to their views without this show ! Keep it up boy !
