    Geoffrey Boycott's outfield returns always came in directly over the bails.

    Simply a pleasure to watch such quality players in action. Note the muted celebrations after any wicket by bowlers and fieldsmen. Compare it to the wildness of the modern era !!!!!!!!!!

    My order is Sobers, Lara Viv,lara was more an entertainer than viv both were fesrless batters bowlers were affraid of bowling viv batted without head gear sohe was the more fearless one but imo Lara was the biggest batting entertainer of all wi batters Sobers the Boss most clasic

    Enjoying seeing these 70's games. I see Clive Lloyd in or near his pomp. Saw him more when he was captain of the 1980's team. I'm sure I saw arguably the finest team play in 1984.

    Thanks for posting. I was at this match as a twelve year old with my Dad. Fifty years later I still have wonderful memories of the day. Alan Knott was my hero, but what a privilege it was to see the likes of Clive Lloyd and Sir Gary Sobers. Keith Boyce played for my county Essex, what a superb all rounder. Cricket and the world have changed a great deal since then.

    Loved these days as a kid ,going for a swim on the beach ,but made sure I was home for 11.30 when the day's play started .West Indies won the series 2-0 with Sobers scoring a classic 150 in 3rd test on his farewell appearance in England

    Keith Boyce was a Great Cricketer , I remember him making 95 at Adelaide in the 75/76 series a Dynamic Innings.

    I was at the game. Remember this team well. Hayes at one point in the series scored a century against bowlers like Boyce. He moved hie feet so well to meet the ball. The West Indies were amazing to watch and yes muted celebrations.

    I watched my very first test match at Lord's in this series. Saw Sir Garry score a hundred. Great match.

    These old cricket vids are so nostalgic.Supporters on the field,fans running on to congratulate batsmen [and stuffing a few notes in their pockets].All in good innocent spirit.The entire atmosphere was different.
