11-8 at the end!
Brilliance from Garner. He was a legend.
The greatest team in the history of team sports
lady and gentleman, here is for you the greatest team of all time.
Facts
Hold our 1983....
Subhasish Singh if it was the greatest what happened when the same windies team toured India in the very same year after the World Cup ?
"Come on, Mr Croft. This is a chance for you to make a name for yourself. You are at the home of cricket." A West Indian gentleman cried from the Tavern at one point. I know because i was standing within earshot. I was there.
The moment @ 16:47. Crowd trying to catch players and players along with empires are running like hell,
Hehee, "Oof! A nasty blow in the box". Lovely commentary.
Great old time cricket matches
Love the miniature pitch invasions!
All of us often forget one simple thing. The captain, Brearley took 130 balls for 64, but somehow he has always escaped scrutiny, probably because, he was not so successful like Boycott in cricket, nor was too many things were expected of him. Boycott’s 105 ball 57, although slow, still was the lesser problem, Brearley’s (lack of) scoring the bigger one. England lost the match, when they fielded only 4 bowlers, even with Botham as a genuine all-rounder. To even think that a 5th bowling option consisting of Geoff Boycott, Graham Gooch and Wayne Larkins can stop Richards & co. was insane to the extreme. When Lloyd got out, England had The Caribbeans at a precarious 99/4 after 30 overs, with the cream of their batting gone, barring Richards. But then the absence of the fifth bowler surfaced, and Richards and King made merry (literally) with Boycs, Gooch and Larkins. This is where England lost. If you let your opponents to score 286 after having them at 99/4, you’re gone, the fault was not totally Boycs’, Brearley and the absent 5th bowler played a huge part. The Caribbeans touched100 in the 31st over, The English in the 32nd - hardly an insurmountable gap, specially when you see, The Caribbeans had lost 4 wickets in the process, while The English had all of them in the tank.
Good point. I agree because I liked Mike Brearley.
Gooch should have opened, he was aggressive and determined player, he could have at least gotten them much closer for sure. Still Remember the amazing 129 of 116 balls he scored in 1986 against mighty West Indies in a very high scoring chase
At 1.56 when Boycott looks like he might be caught behind, I bet Clive Lloyd was saying quietly "shh, don't appeal, leave Boycs out here and they'll never win" LOL and at 4.35 does Lloyd drop the catch deliberately?
Viv Richards has later said yes a deliberate drop but Clive Lloyd has only hinted it since (when bowler Richards complained to him after the drop there was a certain look from Lloyd which Richards took to mean he had indeed faked the drop to keep a slow scorer at the crease in a one day run chase). I don't think it is illegal to deliberately drop a catch actually unless as part of some betting scam etc - Lloyd dropped it as a winning ploy if it was deliberate.
There was also the (in)famous incident of Ian Botham allegedly running Boycott out deliberately to get a faster-scoring Eng batsman in, but I cannot recall the detail of which match and when. The dialogue between the two is probably unprintable.
it was against new zealand in 1978 england toured pakistan and new zealand in 77 78 it was also the first time that new zealand beat england in a test match that series when it finished 1 1
I have read somewhere that after a while West Indies resolved to keep Brearley and Boycott in as they were scoring too slowly to threaten the WI total.
@@carlh429 boycott and brearley were playing for a draw.
run forest run..after end of every match
Looking at the picture quality & the great crusty commentary of Johnners you would think this is from the 1950's
As per today's standards, It is like chasing 400 runs
Then Scoring at 4 runs per over till first 30 overs thinking that remaining 280 runs can be scored in 20 overs. This was the tactics by the openers
Why doesn’t cricket do like 5 overs for one team or 2 batters then switch back and forth until the overs Are over? I think that would add more excitement and strategy like baseball.
@@philmccracken179 I feel like cricket should be played the way it is, its entertaining the way it is plus i doubt if most cricket fans watch baseball
Gooch should have opened, he was aggressive and determined player, he could have at least gotten them much closer for sure. Still Remember the amazing 129 of 116 balls he scored in 1986 against mighty West Indies in a very high scoring chase
Morning Dance from Spyro Gyra at the end was a nice touch
Collis King played the impact innings 86(66). England's infamous go-slow by the openers. Gooch was to play in another two World Cup finals, losing all three! And yes, England's collapse of losing last 8 wickets for 11 runs!
much better than modern day cricket
Even though this is interesting to watch, but anyone will fall asleep watching them bat. Except for Viv Richards ofcourse, the man was way ahead of his times. He would have been perfect in the 90's. If anyone want to watch good technique and temperament batting with hostile spells of bowling then they can watch Test Cricket. Even though Test matches are interesting to watch as well, it's ODI which is the complete package. You get to see good spells of bowling & good stroke play and responsible batting in the first 15 overs, aggressive but responsible batting & nice controlled bowling in the middle and finally aggressive stroke play with bowlers having their times as well in the death overs. Where T20, is mainly to watch with your friends and family at night, & to enjoy good aggressive batting which everyone can enjoy. Modern day cricket has everything for ANY cricket fan where classical is simply "boring".
Your analysis is boring.
I was so lucky to have watch most of these West Indies players at Sabina park. I wouldn't watch these modern players for free
@@pahulgill6114 Absolute garbage you weren't even born so how do you know. I enjoyed every minute of cricket in the old days. I wish we could abolish IPL cricket its just not a contest between bat and ball smaller boundary's and bigger bats BORING
So true better than wc 2023 India 💩
It's funny when people from the crowd(6:21) running inside the field to pat the fielder on the back. Imagine happening it today.
I've never seen such a spectacular collapse as i seen from England that day 183 for 2 to 194 all out i always said Brearley got the tactics wrong in not playing a 5th specialist bowler when Willis was injured opening with Brearley and Boycott ideal in a test match not a ODI final it would've been better had Gooch opened with Boycott and Brearley at n.o.4
James You really thought England could've won this?
@@joncumber2020 Gooch could have, remember the 129 of 116 he scored against West Indies in 1986 in a ODI, very high scoring chase
Great bowling
Excellent Sir
That match telecast I hear on radio along with Wimbeldon match on news also.
The Man of the match award should have been a joint award to Brearly and Boycott
After all west did in dat period they were still called oniffical world champion me ah wonder why people ave to remember betwen febuary march 1979/ 80 and febuary march 1995 for 15 years they did not lost a test series
@ 10:58 Its Holding running up to bowl. @ 11:01 Garner bowls Gooch.
Nice captaincy by super cat Clive Lloyd, nice sensible batting by king viv Richards, we'll bowled by bid bird Joel garner & other pace bowler.😂
@Bharat Tank ,as usual no mention of Collis King who actually took the game away from England!
@@hangalf King was a great bowler..
Gavaskar facing Imran brilliantaly have you any video
मस्त आहे
Brearley was Captain of Middlesex, a gentleman.
Fast 🏃 runners can save their lives
It's not the tv coverage, the camera is at an angle and one one on commentary, that been added afterwards.
When you have a team of outstanding World Class players…. It only one or two to play @ a super level for match to be won… England were good… but Windies were on another level….
One of the most ridiculous fails one-day cricket has ever seen. It's like the openers didn't even try
Boycott, playing for himself as usual
he didn't like getting out as it affected his average - Botham deliberately got him run out in a one day game once (he hit the ball far enough that a single might be possible but then concocted confusion over whether to run or not etc and then set off just as Boycott would indeed then set off too in response but not make it to the other end) - to get a quicker scorer at the wicket - Botham had even moved himself up the initial batting order just to do that.

Uploaders: I appreciate these videos. Is it possible to put the scorecard or the list of players for this game/match? If you can, please do. Thank you.

.Michael delivery to Boycott at 1.28 is so fast around d 95/96 mph
Hahaa so funny in last how players run
Brearley really cocked it up that day in the final with his tactics
1.Why did he win the toss and put the West Indies into bat he should've batted first
2.Batting with Brearley and Boycott in reply would have been better with Gooch and Boycott opening and Brearley dropping himself down the order Brearley and Boycott opening good for a test match not a one day final when trying to score 287 to win off 60 overs
3 Lack of a 5th bowler it was a mistake using Gooch Boycott and Larkins to bowl 12 overs between them with Willis out injured England should've played Lever or Miller in the final as a 5th specialist bowler

H : HEROES (better performers)
V : VILLAINS (worse performers)
(I've written the HERO & VILLAIN performers from best to worst order)
1975 & 1979 :
[ IN BOTH WC IT'S BATTING FAILURE ]
CAPTAIN :
S VENKATARAGHAVAN
1975 :
OUT, 3RD IN GROUP A
H : SYED-ABID-ALI (allrounder)
V : GAVASKAR
1979 :
OUT, 4TH IN GROUP B
H : VISHWANATH GAVASKAR KAPIL (allround okay contribution) & BRIJESH (although small contribution)
(All have performed fairly average)
V : Whole batting lineup (and even worst bowling), especially GAEKWAD VENGSARKAR AMARNATH with bat vs strong teams WI NZ
1983 & 1987 :
[ KEY VETERAN PERFORMERS EITHER INCONSISTENT OR MISSED CRUCIAL KNOCKOUTS, AS IN 1987 ]
CAPTAIN :
KAPIL DEV
1983 :
WINNERS
H : BINNY SANDEEP AMARNATH MADANLAL YASHPAL KAPIL SRIKKANTH
(BINNY is solid overall throughout)
V : GAVASKAR
(Single digit streak except 2 odd innings in WC1979)
1987 :
LOST SEMIS TO ENGLAND
(1st 50 over World Cup)
H : SIDHU AZHAR MANINDER SHASTRI GAVASKAR (except his AUS ENG failures) KAPIL
(SIDHU AZHAR SHASTRI MANINDER are exceptional, with batting consistency crucial contribution or crucial batter wkts)
V : VENGSARKAR GAVASKAR
(Both are batting legends, but they've performed only vs AUS or else weak NZ ZIM of this WC unlike relatively stronger NZ ZIM of 1975 till 1983, VENGSARKAR didn't play SEMIS vs ENG which is real big dent to added batting strength, KAPIL is also inconsistent with bat)
1992 TILL 1999 :
[ OVERALL BATTING BOWLING FAILURE, TOO MUCH CHOPPING AND CHANGING & NOT BACKING PROVEN PERFORMERS, LIKE WC1987 MATCHWINNER SIDHU EXCLUDED IN WC1992 ]
CAPTAIN :
MOHD. AZHARUDDIN
1992 :
DISQUALIFIED IN TOP4 IN ROUND-ROBIN WORLD CUP
H : AZHAR KAPIL SACHIN MANJREKAR PRABHAKAR (bit with ball)/JADEJA
V : No consistency except AZHAR KAPIL & somewhat SACHIN/JADEJA/MANJREKAR, and mostly it's batting failure (than bowling vs last SA match), SIDHU exclusion from WC1992 is totally baseless (knowledgeable ones tell me about this)
1996 :
LOST SEMIS TO SRILANKA BY RIOTING CROWD
(Note that SL had got 2 matches walkover in group stage from AUS & WI due to bombing & safety concerns caused by LTTE in SL)
H : SACHIN SIDHU KUMBLE RAJU JADEJA PRASAD & lastly SRINATH (in SEMIS and few other matches, also inconsistent at times)
V : AZHAR JADEJA PRABHAKAR KAMBLI (very very inconsistent with bat or ball, and consistent shuffling of batting order by captain with unsettled openers despite matchwinner SIDHU availability)
1998 :
LOST SEMIS TO WINDIES
H : SACHIN GANGULY JADEJA ROBIN JOSHI DRAVID
V : Worst bowling unable to pick wickets or contain runs, especially KUMBLE SRINATH vs strong WI in SEMIS
1999 :
OUT, LAST IN SUPER SIX
H : DRAVID GANGULY SACHIN ROBIN JADEJA RAMESH (good contributions with bat often at times) & SRINATH KUMBLE PRASAD MOHANTY (either wicket takers or have contained runs somewhat often)
V : Extremely inconsistent batting except DRAVID GANGULY SACHIN, JADEJA peeks in super six stage and ROBIN is solid, but often the top trio fails in some crucial matches, AZHAR MONGIA and bowlers except PRASAD MOHANTY SRINATH ROBIN & little of KUMBLE are alternately damn inconsistent and have leaked runs in few matches which led to WC exit with last position in super six, and even GANGULY was very iffy in super six. ☹️
Was Larkin's nickname 'Sky'?
His nickname was Ned.
Who came up with the idea of asking Boycott to open the innings?
79 off 25 - not too bad for the time was it? But really, Brearley and Boycs opening?
Gooch should have opened, he was aggressive and determined player, he could have at least gotten them much closer for sure. Still Remember the amazing 129 of 116 balls he scored in 1986 against mighty West Indies in a very high scoring chase
i thought they are going to attack the players. oh my days...
The umpires look fitter than the opening pair...lmao
What was Andy Roberts doing,bowling half volley tripe to Boycott.Geoffrey did not like fast ,short stuff so Andy should have bowled some of that.!
djangorheinhardt. Because there was no need to get him out he couldn't score fast.
@@ruddyragga9147 andy actually says he shouted at clive to drop boycott
Poor old Gooch, trying to score fast after the paint drying in the sun opening stand.

@11.18
Poor picture quality compared to the tv coverage
Cricket was very interested and gentlemen game before bcci involved . 😑😑😑 Shame on them for destroyed it 👞👞
England did well in this tournament. It was the Pakistan which can stop West Indies to climb up and grab the cup once again! There were six teams in this tournament. Newziland, Austrailia, Pakistan and Zimbabve were on the loosing side. India was not there, and South Africa was not invited.
Ahmed Baig South Africa were BANBED from all international sport at the time becauseof their apartheid laws
india was there they lost all 3 group games they was beaten by sri lanka who then was not a test nation
Canada was in England's group as well with Pakistan and Australia
Love Johnners, but this is a ridiculous voiceover belonging more to a Pathe newsreel of the 1950s.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 indeed
104 off 13. That's chicken feed by the current standards.
Batsman crowd se bch k bhag rahe h ki kayi crowd bhurta n bna de
A pathetic show by Boycott and Brearley
Gooch should have opened, he was aggressive and determined player, he could have at least gotten them much closer for sure. Still Remember the amazing 129 of 116 balls he scored in 1986 against mighty West Indies in a very high scoring chase and why was David Gower batting so low in the order? he was aggressive even in the 70's
