There will be never a cricket legend like Sir Vivian Richards in the world cricket history

Richards in his late 30's still wearing a cap. Nuts

No batters has the swag that Sir Viv had in back then-80's

This man was an absolute beast, these days it's like the current WI cricketers have forgotten the great legacy of their past and the titans of cricket that came before them. Sir Viv is the most destructive batsman I've ever seen.

Every IPL franchise would have run after Sir Viv if he was playing in this era

The real Master blaster Sir viv Richards 💯

The nonchalance swagger of this man at the crease is unmatched; the closest thing we have in the modern era is probably Kohli, but even he pales in the presence of Viv. How he is able to yield such power with a toothpick 80's batt is a testimony to his timing, talent and great eye. The ultimate boss.

Some of the shots which he had played without helmet and with the bat which is much worse than todays quality of bat are way better than today’s top notch players

Keep things in context. Lara had a higher average and scored more centuries against consistently strong Australian bowling attacks. He never had the relative luxury of playing against the likes of Simon O'Donell, Mike Whitney. While Richards scored some memorable innings against Australia almost half were against weak attacks when the WI bowling was destroying batting line ups. He had one stellar series against Australia 1979, he averaged 90 something against an attack where Lillee and Thomson were past their best. Every Australian bowling attack he faced ( for that matter Pakistan as well ) had genuine match winning pace as well as spin.

Perfect timing, tremendous power

The bowlers today must be thankful to the big guy upstairs !! Wish he played T20s.. A classy, fearless cricketer with such a nice attitude. Viv - you are indeed the most destructive player of all times, for me. God Bless.

Back when i used to watch cricket 👍

A great sportsperson too... giving chance to his partner to hit winning run...true legend

Great to watch Sir Viv play great great player there can be only one Sir Viv golden era of Windies cricket pls download more old West Indies videos

Greatest entertainmer this game has seen soo great to watch.

Best batsman ever to play the game for me... Facing fastest bowlers of his time without helmet and strike rate of near 100 is just extraordinary..❤❤

Hats of his confidence level...ever seen played with Helmet facing most dangerous pace bowlers...amazing...great sir viv Richard's ❤❤❤❤

Daring and dashing.....in 80' s....absolute beast....

Fearless along with being a great Batsman. By the 80s, helmets were so common, but Viv refused to wear one. Plus he had one of the longest peaks for a Batsman, around 17 years. that's just remarkable.

Not just Viv, Richie Richardson also never wore a helmet. Larry Gomes neither.

I was at this game.. 12 years old at the time. Dean Jones had a blinder of an innings during the day and then Viv came out and absolutely smashed it out of the park. Looking back, what a privilege it was to see Viv and the West Indies at the top of their game.

The ball just hit the fence hard and bounced back when Viv hit it. Would like to know if anyone has tried scientifically to explore how he managed to hit it so well. Viv- The Unmatched!

Called ability. Viv's still the best ODI batsman of all time & the best Test batsman since Bradman. No one since has been in his league.

The only cricketer whose presence at the crease is matchless and unique.

I saw Viv Richards at the Oval London in 1976 vs England where he scored 200 not out on the first days play, just magic.

Goat without doubt🥵🔥

Imagine a PRIME Gayle & PRIME ViV Richards, batting in today's batting friendly grounds CWI would be unstoppable with runs

He deserves to be hero of master

Viv Richard...the cricket beast gave feast to the spectators with his bat. Always put the bowlers and opponents in grave danger and tension

In today's scenario, Viv Sir might have scored 400 in one day and 300 in T20, he was brutal, he was perfect for any format of Cricket, he is a Super, no one matches his ability in world cricket ❤

Only one player can play like this and that is sir viv richards. The great westindies of 70s and 80s. They are the greatest team ever. Especially marshall and richards. Masters in the art of cricket.

Too see Merv casually splattered all over the park by Sir Viv is special... as if Merv was a slow medium... incredible eye hand timing.
