The Greatest Batsman to have ever graced this wonderful Sport. Doesn't matter what Sachin, Virat, Smith or anyone accomplish statistically, none can compare to the great Viv. He literally owned the game even if West Indies were 50-4 or 200 without loss. Salute to the Legend. We will never see another Viv Richards ever.
He doesnt usually come at 50/4 may be later when he slotted himself a lot down; He did have Gordon & Desmond (earlier Roy) opening ahead of Viv..So, perhaps not always but Viv performs better when he enters 20/1 or 10/1 rather then 150/1 where he entertain the crowd and het out instead of thumping and protecting the average that's why Vivy was great a top tier ATG..Best i saw
The greatest of all.A complete batsman.Only batsman who had the balls to face,thrash and hook to the fast bowlers without wearing a helmet.Respect sir!
They say superman wears a cape. i think sir Viv didnot but he was. True champion way ahead of his time.playing today he would have scored with eyes closed (small boundaries,big bats and prepared/covered pitches,probably would have cost fortune to play in these T20 Leagues.
Playing with solid protective gears refined pitches and playing without helmets protective gears uncured rough uneven pitches its like earth and sky distance.

Richards is the Real Master .This title is applicable only to the incomparable Sir Alexander Vivian Richard and not to other batsmen though talented.His kingship Excells that of other willow wielders.
Manish Pandey is a way better batsman than Viv Richards. Manish Pandey scored an unbeaten century against Australia in Australia in Sydney SCG while chasing the target of 330 in his fourth ODI of his career which Viv Richards can never do but Manish Pandey did. Manish Pandey hit arrogant sixes against the great world class fast bowler Dale Steyn. Viv Richards can never play great world class fast bowler Dale Steyn. th-cam.com/video/5eThSct7bKc/w-d-xo.html
@@rickynaicker7313 Did Viv Richards score unbeaten century against Australia in Australia in Sydney SCG while chasing the target 330 in his fourth ODI of his career? No! Manish pandey did! Viv Richards can't even chase down 183 in 1983 finals. Manish Pandey is better than Viv richards.
@@flash-uj6ly I suppose you are entitled to your OPINION . Sir Viv is the grandfather of one day cricket. I suggest in your leisure, you view the following 3 innings of Sir Viv and maybe you will change your mind. 189 not out in 1984 at Old Trafford, 138 not out in the 1979 world cup final and 146 in SCG against Australia. No sure how old you are but I have been watching cricket from 1974, but I concur with "sweet azz" when he says "Manish Who"

Respect🙏
Still waiting to see Someone who is anywhere nearer to his Style of Batting...maybe Sehwag ....🙏
