One of the best timer of the ball

Ramesh never had footwork..

WV sir...why did you stop making videos? Saw this video first time and really liked it...please make more such videos

Stylish left-handed with good technique and aggressiveness. Unfortunately he didn't get many chances for what he deserves.

WV Raman was the first genuine left hander who could play west Indian fast bowler

Thanks Mr WV Raman for special epidode on EAS Prasanna great craftsman

Anil kumble has taken good sizeable number of wickets in foreign country.

Enjoyed hearing about our childhood hero .Wish he had lived little more..thanks Mr.WV Raman..

India wasted LS' s talent. Pity...

He rubbed Pataudi the wrong way and lost out

100 %. Satyam. Raman speak from his 💜 heart

Mr.Venkatraghavan a Great Personality Both On & Off the Field in all walks of him need to be followed by young Sports persons.

Unfortunately two most intelligent cricketers viz Mohinder Amaranth and Venkataraghavan are not properly rewarded or recognised by BCCI and the cricket lovers

As a 10 years boy i used to see in news paper how many runs Sir Jaisimha scored. Such was his popularity. Great you remembered him WVRaman garu.

It is very sad you both very short test career.

Strict on field SV.

Pdogg is very underrated for Indian franchise owners. His passion towards cricket is mind blowing

First of all my thanks and salute to Mr. W V RAMAN for bringing such a beautiful episode of our Great EAS Prasanna. Undoubtedly, the best off spinner in the world till date. He is the most intelligent bowler of all time. I am now 64. Prasanna sir was my father's freind. I met Prasanna sir in the year 1979 (May 1979), in my father's office at Udyog Bhawan, New Delhi.

Smiling Assasin! Simply the best attributed honour by Sir Sunil Gavaskar I think. Mesmerised Great Aussi's of the time . Never forgot 24 for 4 Chepak 1969 Likeable First Win over the Odds !

Brijesh patel was much much a better batsman than Partasarty Sharma Ashok Mamkad Yujvendra Singh Kirthi Azad and many more names in those days.

One of my favourite cricketers in younger days

Siva - I was your batch mate from Vidya Mandir. Will never forget the incredible bowling that got you 7 wickets on debut at the Chepauk test against England. Very inspiring at 17 years of age. Your commentary was also spot on and smooth. Best wishes to you ❤

Fantastic cricketers both

As a Pakistani cricket fan, i always thought he was India lucky charm especially against Pakistan- when he was replaced, India started losing to Pakistan- i could never figure, why he was replaced & never brought back

My childhood hero i was fortunate enough to have met him through my late uncle Prabhakar Rao who was if I'm not wrong the former VP of TNCA

I rate Laxman Shiva ramakrishna is head and shoulder way ahead of all leg spinner of whole cricket history. He is the only one who used get return catches a lot unlike others

He is great Intelligent gentleman cricketer

Sadanand did not get enough opportunities after benson and hedges 85, very soon kiran more, chandrakant pandit and nayan mongia were competing for keeper spot, Dhoni showed world how a cool keeper can be a great batsman and winning captain, SV was lost during those years returning back became up hill battle, but we stll love SV 👍🏆

Venkat as he is popularly called is the greatest of the cricketers that India has produced. Venkat, truly a an outstanding allrounder, player, captain, umpire, TNCA Secretary, National Selector, Manager, match referee, . ans what not. Every role in World cricket, proudest son from Tamil Nadu.

We had Pataudi, Solkar and Venkat , the three best fielders those days...Venkat was very economical as well..the quartet had to share wickets, otherwise statistics could be better...

Superb interview. Both of you should have played at least 50 test matches.

Hewas not new ball partner actually karsan was single handed pace bowler Kapil joint karsan much later

சேப்பாக்கம் மைதானத்திர்க்கு வெங்கட்டராகவன் Stand. பெயர் வைக்கலலாமே

Handsam hiro

Truly an unsung hero.

Remembering the catch Venkat catching John Edrich , venkat had to squat veryically at instant as the catch was close to his ankle but he grabbed it with one hand . Another catch worth mentioning was the catch of Brain Lukhurst slash shot that came to venkat , he had fingers like octopus tentacles . That was such a great catch , media did not highlight much . This was at The Oval where India won against England 1971. Also the ball that clean bowled Alan Knott ( England) 1971 at Old Trafford is still fresh as if it happened yesterday . Thanks for sharing.

WV Sir, good objective interview with LS. LS is a very good bowler and a team man. Still remember his historic bowling in world series championships in 85. It was extremely funny to see English and other batsman unable to read him and found wanting. Really India's loss for LS career ending abruptly.

Fantastic WVR. I re-collect from my memory when you assisted us as an all-rounder in a tennis ball match at Guest House ground Chepauk when we were studying in HHSchool. I was senior to you by 4 years. You were staying in Big Street, Tcane. We were all much craze to cricket during 1970-80s

googled wv raman ji's name after reading ashwin's book. found this video.

I respect Karsan Ghavri and I wish I could see most videos in full detail over and over!

Cricket Fraternity owes big thanks to folks like Venkat. He is one of the rare students of the game who gave more back to the game than most cricketers. As a player he was a fantastic slip and short leg fielder in an era when Indian fielding was no less than shoddy barring few in close-in fielders. As a bowler he was a fine exponent of spin bowling but would not find regular place in the team as one of 4 had to take the brunt and it was Venkat for most part. One of his last dismissals in test cricket was that of Kim Hughes of Australia at Chepauk, it could be one of the all time great deliveries ever bowled ... something akin to Warne's delivery of the century. I recommend folk to watch that if you can find it in RUclips. He also captained India Test team for one test against WI in 1976 as Pataudi missed Delhi Test. Famous test where Viv scored his maidens massive 192 ( was caught at slips when 12 of Venky but wasn't given out, rest is history) Sadly he was dropped the vey next test and such things can happen only in Indian Cricket. His bowling action was picture perfect. Fantastic captain, way he handled limited TN bowling to win in Deodhar Trophy in Delhi... perhaps that prompted selectors to make him captain for the world cup. I wish him all the very best and big thanks for his contributions Cricket. Raman it is nice of you bring Venky story, when the rest of the world seems to have forgotten a legend.👒

I have read his book test, trial and triumph. It gives you a holistic view of running of Indian cricket. He has risen up the ranks.

Sir aap coch hoge...🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Ideal parent who not only put no pressure on his daughter but always kept the door open for her if she wanted to walk away.

Shabash Raman. Shabash Imran.

97 not out can't be forgotten even, if it's Madras .....it's permanently etched in every hearts

I am a great fan of Viv Richards. Simply He batted like a King. There is no body like him or will be.

Well narrated.

Thanks WVR for sharing your view. I always had great attachment with Jai while listening radio commentary. Read his two books my son presented to me on my birth days 3 years back. The aura created in those days absolutely remarkable. To day at 74 years still remembering those days. Jai gem of a person and a gentleman with pure heart.

Whatever TNCA today , it owes a great credit to Venkat Ji... He had groomed many players during his time... Many Ranji Trophy matches and Gopalan Trophy ( TN vs Ceylon ) were played very seriously when he was around... An unlucky to get due recognition however he was never short of his brilliant bowling ( not to ignore his catching skills )... Proud to be one of his fans...
