I had these highlights recorded onto tape and watched them frequently. I remember everything in this video, from the wickets, to the celebrations, the commentary (back when Mark Nicholas was listenable and uncorrupted by his later Aussie colleagues) to even the cuts, edits and voice overs. England had such a great bowling line-up in that series. Gough, Caddick, Cork and White were all incredibly dangerous in those conditions.
also take into account english conditions... ie openers rarely rule in england... that's why Cook is such a stud, averaging twice as much as his fellow 10+ openers after Strauss retired. So tbh, although Broad and Anderson are world class, u still need to look at their figures abroad.
@@anweshchatterjee7595 There's bowling averages then there's the actual bowling in the prevailing conditions against the batsmen and you also skipped right past the part where I mentioned his attitude, which is extremely rare and which will never appear on any bowling statistics analysis. They don't hand out Wisden cricketer of the year awards to minor players. So, if all you have is one data point like a bowling average to bring to the discussion and a "lol" as an attempt to make some kind of nebulous point about how amusing you find it all, you don't really have anything.
He was a good spearhead for us. Caddick had the more natural attributes for a quick bowler, but Goughie had the bigger heart. Cork and White also excelled in this series.
When cricket is good it is unbeatable, watching batsmen in any format play shots is nice. Watching bowlers really test batsmen, confuse them, scare them, hurt them, make them think and eventually send their off stumps flying is what i love the most
He had problems with Glaucoma which was why he was using them. I remember watching this test in my dorm about to leave school having finished my A levels.
I was at this game watching from the football ground end. The second day started with so much trepidation, England building themselves a lead. My two key memories of the WI 2nd innings were the atmosphere when Goughie took those wickets before tea and then the sight of the stumps being flattened by Caddick at the other end. Amazing!
This was a really strong England team. Atherton, Stewart, Caddick, Gough, Cork, Nasser and the rest. We currently owe that generation a debt of gratitude.
Probably a very important day for both countries - England got their fighting pride back after years of mediocrity by winning this series. Ambrose and Walsh finally retired after this (both were ANCIENT in bowling terms in 2000) and the WI decline really accelerated without them.
Brought back so many unforgettable memories! It was, in hindsight, where it all turned around for English cricket: a historic series win against West Indies after the disasters of the 80s and 90s. England never again sank to such lows (until the recent ashes at any rate)
@@stuartcarden1371: It was a historic series, not just for the fact that England won against West Indies after 31 years. They had been poor for the best part of 2 decades. With central contracts kicking in, this series was where it started turning around for them
for those of you under 30 wondering why this is on youtube- this is because back in the 90's West India used to be the best team in the world, so to get ten wickets against them was considered a good achievement.
Classic seam bowling. It’s a good lesson for any bowler on how to take wickets in England. Bowl in the right areas, and the rest will come. That includes swing, wickets, and, depending on how fast you are, pace.
Kristen Giles yeah, but not to storm the pitch after a game when the players are still there. That was ended in either 2000 or 2001 with the steward being trampled in the england - Pakistan series
@@ankit1400 the action has many subtle intricacies in terms of Weight distribution, ball grip and balance. To perfect it you'll need to have the fitness level of Darren Gough or Richard hadlee.
ooohh! enjoyed that swinging yorker, changing the direction from leg to off and the way batsman was struggling to balance himself. Gem of a ball from caddick
This was probably the beginning of the end of West Indies test team. They never had a team with such players playing together after this group. Lara, Adams, Chanderpaul, Campbell, Sarwan, Walsh, Ambrose etc. Lara's 400 and his exploits in Sri Lanka came after this but the writing was on the wall.
Goughy...upper body strength and swinging deliveries...so good to see....you don't have to be 6'4" to be a great bowler....Caddick....just making that cherry go exactly where he wants...an amazing spell of bowling...
Indeed, I'm left handed and I much prefer the ball angling across towards the slips from a right arm over bowler. As a left hander you tend to develop playing strong shots off your legs when the ball comes straight down the line of leg or middle and leg, as it often does from right arm bowlers, and square on the offside & cover-driving as the ball drifts across you a lot. If a bowler can get it to swing and / or seam back in it always causes problems. It's a difficult skill especially for club players. Class bowlers like Gough and Caddick showing how it's done in this video - superb bowling.
AAhh... that beautiful dark red ball, it’s spring, swing in the air, lovely and just getting me in the mood to run in hard and bowl a few down the pitch. Lovely feeling. Always enjoyed watching Caddick and Gough bowl.
ive never played a very high level a few senior grade games for my club mostly lower grade however I do know, once or twice in every players career you just have a spell of bowling where you are just magical, and every ball is dangerous Caddick and Gough had one in this game.
Make dukes balls the norm for international cricket. Such a beautiful ball - Dark coloured and with a very proud seam. Test cricket would then be watchable everywhere, not just in England.
I followed this match on Cricinfo. It is absolutely lovely to watch the action. 18 years back and still the memories are fresh in my mind. Thanks for this upload
I remember watching this live, it makes me sad that cricket is no longer on free to air TV, because fewer kids will get to experience the sheer joy of a test match on the telly. I had a pretty rough childhood (didn't we all), but watching the test matches in the summer is a very fond memory.
As a Somerset fan, watching our Andy destroying the Windies with this over is my fav cricket moment, and it was on free for view. Should of played a lot more fir England imo
Wonderful game of test cricket that can only be witnessed in the English conditions......Well done England you are true "World Champions".....Hats off to you

Look at the crowd. It's not a premier league game rather it's a test match! Unthinkable in 2019. T 20 cricket destroyed beauty of test and odi cricket.
He had a very gangly approach but once at the crease was very fluent. Always thought he was an underrated bowler, could have been a yard quicker if not for the ears :p
When you replay this extraordinary footage and see what Gough and Caddick could do you wonder how they only averaged 28/29 over their careers. Gough is an especial Misterio.
A 28 or 29 average aint bad man. In the grand scheme of things if your career average is below 30 with a pretty good strike rate, I think you have done pretty well as a bowler.

I am here after an inept batting display by England today against India with the test finishing inside 2 days. Tino Best's tweet brought me here. Bet none of the English commentators were clamoring for this headingley pitch to be called poor. Beautiful bowling by England they said. Lack of application by the West Indies they said. Well well.
Slats commentated on Channel 4 (hence the beginning of the video says it's from Channel 4) towards the end of his international career. Was a regular on it for most of the C4 years.
Very difficult to fathom why he left it given where it pitched, and the fact he was out in a similar fashion in the first innings. I bet he felt like a right banana afterwards.
@@shivampawar4450 Of all English bowlers, Caddick has a very good subcontinent record. Marginally better than Stuart Broad. Check your facts before calling a bowler wrecking havoc @37 average..
@@shivampawar4450 He only played in Pakistan and Sri Lanka, and a very limited amount at that. 3 matches in each country means nothing. An average of 25 in Sri Lanka isn't bad though.

Absolutely YES
So were his ears
i realize I am kinda off topic but do anyone know a good website to watch newly released tv shows online?

A lot like Sir Richard Hadlee. Caddick was born in NZ. Was inspired by Hadlee I'm sure.

"Look at this field. Have you ever seen anything like it?" Pretty sure that was Steve Waugh's standard field to start any test innings ;-)
