रेहान जी आपका अंदाज ए बयां कमाल का है। एक जमाने में मैं बीबीसी हिंदी सेवा का नियमित श्रोता था। आपके अलावा अचला शर्मा, परवेज आलम और राजनारायण बिसारिया अपने अपने प्रोग्राम के महारथी थे।
I was a fortunate 13 year old in 1972 in Kanpur who went on a hunger strike unless my parent send me to watch this test match at Green park and luckily they yielded and I saw that inning on the first day. I did not know much about cricket but the beauty of his shot was classic and I was screaming and dancing whenever he hit a boundary. I became a cricketer from that day on.
I was in 10th class when he scored century on debut at Kanpur. What a career. He had as much fan following as Gavaskar. Great cricketer and he is my all time favourite Indian cricketer. His greatest Innings of 97 was against WI at Madras in 1975. Perhaps one of the finest innings any Indian played.
The greatest square driver of all time , 18 test centuries , 17 victories for india , salute to this marvelous batsman , am lucky to have seen him play at the Eden gardens , 139 in the 2 nd innings against Clive Lloyd's West Indians, and yes india won that text match
@@pankajkumarpandey6658 without helmet , without chest guard , without arm guards , and not Andy Roberts alone , remember they had vanburn holder , Bernard Julien, Keith Boyce to assist him and last but not the least Lance Gibbs, probably the most under rated West Indian bowler ever , remember he was the first bowler in history to get more than 300 test wickets
The legend Vishi....I was in Eden Garden....witnessed this maestro taking on Andy Roberts, Vanburn Holder, Keith Boyce, Lance Gibbs. It was a classic inning
Extremely well presented video on great Vishwanth. Rehan Fazal deserves all the praise. This is finest resume of little master. I must confess honesty of great Sunny for rating Grandpa higher than himself so did Lilly, the legendary fast bowler.
He was among the utmost best of his times I saw him live very few times in 1982 Pakistan series, perhaps his last series, he could not play up to his potential in that series He was our captain in golden jubilee test against England and still remember how he called back Ian Botham despite being given out by umpire, a real sportsman spirit A great player, a great human Feel proud that he is an Indian Love you vishi
I always think.he was best Batsman of Indian cricket iam hv seen his kolkata ining against WI in which he hits 52/139runs n India won that test.He was great
The finest cricketer of all time. Great human being above all. I wish I could meet him. If someone can give me his contact I will obliged. Hero of my life.
रेहानजी, आपने मेरे 12साल की उम्र मे देखा गया टाइगर पटौदी और बिल लाॅरी की कप्तानी वाला वह मैच याद दिला दिया। पहली पारी मे शून्य पर out होने के बाद दूसरी पारी मे जब विश्वनाथ ने क्रीज़ पर स्टान्स लिया, तब Keith Stackpole, Ian Redpath, Bill Lawry etc ने उन्हे घेर लिया था। हम gallery से विश्वनाथ को देख ही नही पा रहे थे। जब उन्होने पहली boundary flick करके score किया तब field spread out हुई। Century लगने के बाद Stackpole द्वारा विश्वनाथ को गोदी मे उठाने का नज़ारा भी देखा था। धन्यवाद याद दिलाने के लिए।
Not the Takat, but, the Nazakat. Simply outstanding.A Sawambhu….Watching him play might give an organism to a real cricket lover. Sincere apologies for my language.Kindly forgive.
I am glad to know that Gavaskar treated Vishy as a better batsman than himself. It is news for me. Wrist Assured is the most apropriate title for his biography. Pataudi had the talent to spot talent and nurture it.
Vishy has been my favourite player for all the time. I remember - how I used to bunk college & just stuck with radio - listening to my dearest Vishy & his immaculate strokeplay. It was the only occasion when everyone in my family supported me without any complaint. Bcoz everybody knew - that I m an ordinant fan of Vishy & even today!!
Vishi was perfect n technical batsman. In many testmatches he has shown classical wristy shots especiall when he had hitted sqare cuts n loafted shots.He was called the little master of our team.
Aaj kl k daur me aise sportsman spirit wale players bahut kam milte hai. Wow Vishwanath.. I want to see his batting pls upload any video clip of Vishwanath
I was in the stands watching his 97 not out in Madras. He was my cricketing idol. The man of crisis and my most favorite cricketer from India along with BS Chandra Shakar, kirimani and Venkatraghavan.
Vishys chanceless century in Melbourne against Lillee and Pasco when other struggled needs mention of finest Indias cricketing moments. India won that match. Another superlative innings was century at Lords along with Vengsarkar which ensured that India drew when allmost all had thought England would win easily. Overall there was no batsman who was better than Vishwanath those days!
In addition, Ajit Wadekar, Prasanna, Bedi, Chandrashekhar, Venkatraghvan, Eknath Solkar, Abid Ali, Farukh Engineer, Karsan Ghavri, Madanlal. What a fantastic team it was. 🏆📯
His cover drive was so beatiful to watch. He was fully matured batsman . he was playing cricket whethr zonal. League friendly Ranji or test for good play. So he is great. Since 1956 I watching cricket matches but I found the best to my thinking only Vishy Salim Kapil Bedi chandra Sunil Dhoni and Yuvi were best to my judgement . need comments if any
The mighty wrist of legendary Gundappa viswanath woes a lot to legendary Captain Tiger Pataudi..Actually records donot give the true caliber of these people: Vishwanath, Gavaskar & Tiger Pataudi,Chandrasekhar,Bedi,Prasanna. Vishwanath is a 10000 run & 30 century batsman.Gavaskar is a 15000 & 40 to 50 century batsman.Bedi, Prasanna & Chandra would have been 300 wicket bowler.Chandra would have been the highest wicket taker of the World with 350 wicket.That is because both Prasanna & Chandra lost 4 precious years at the prime: Prasanna because of his Engineering education and Chandrasekhar due to an unfortunate scooter accident. And Tiger would have won many tests for India, had he got the services of Gavaskar & Viswanath in full measure.Both of them played under Tiger but very few tests.Gavaskar--Viswanath in batting & the Bedi--Chandra--Prasanna in bowling formed a romantic chapter of Indian cricket history.
मै ब्यक्तिगत रूप से विश्वनाथ सर को दुनिया का सबसे सफल बल्लेबाज मानता हूं खासकर स्टेट छक्का मारने में उस समय से लेकर आज तक कोई बल्लेबाज उनकी बराबरी नही कर सका क्योंकि उस दौर के गेंदबाज डी के मैकेंजी जिसकी गेंद गति 145 किलोमीटर पर स्टेट छक्का मारना बहुत ही मुश्किल था ?
गुंडप्पा विश्वनाथ के इडेन में आस्ट्रेलिया के खिलाफ बनाये गये विश्वनाथ के 99 रन। शतक से चूके, पर इतनी कलात्मक पारी और न देखी, ऐसा वो सभी मानते है जो देखे थे। सचिन लारा कोहली की महान पारियां देखने के बाद भी। कलात्मक बैटिंग में - डेविड गोवर, जहीर अब्बास के अलावे कोई टक्कर नहीं ले सकता।
Jubli match maine suna tha , sub ne Vishvnath ko zimmedar bataye .Lekin such yeh hai : Jhooth bole kar jeetne se behtar hai such bole kar haar jaana. Vishva nath zindabaad. Main aaj tak vishvnath ko zimmedar samajhta tha .
Our childhood idol. We became his instant fans when he scored 139, 97 and 95 in successive tests against West Indies in the 1974-75 series. We in our early teens were not quite familiar with the nuances of the game, but were busy collecting newspaper clippings and getting awed by the pics in Illustrated Weekly, Cricket quarterly and other magazines. My generation was not lucky enough to watch him on the DD because he retired in 1982 itself. The man in crisis and a master technician he took on Roberts, Lillie, Thomson, Holding, Willis, Imran and Sarfaraz with elan and ease. I was overwhelmed when I shook hands with him in 2007 in Visakhapatnam, in an event organised to felicitate him. India never lost when he scored a ton. He is the best.

उनकी एक 222 रन की इनिंगमें मेरी याद से 40चौकार थे.

All time great & most stylish batsman. A highly honest cricketer, who never waited for umpire's signal for giving him out.

वाह किन दिनों की याद दिला दी आपने । और कितनी खूबसूरती के साथ। विशी के स्कायर कट लेट कट वाकई अनमोल । क्रिकेट का सौंदर्य

Yes , 17 boundaries on a Chepauk green top , 14 of them square drives between deep xtra cover and square third man

14 test century bhai
I have seen Calcutta test when GR Vishwanath scored 139. He was class batsman. It was very difficult to play Andy Roberts without helmet.
@@pankajkumarpandey6658 without helmet , without chest guard , without arm guards , and not Andy Roberts alone , remember they had vanburn holder , Bernard Julien, Keith Boyce to assist him and last but not the least Lance Gibbs, probably the most under rated West Indian bowler ever , remember he was the first bowler in history to get more than 300 test wickets
That inning was a classic
@@qasim9165 I was in the stands, watching my hero take on the mighty West Indies single handedly
The legend Vishi....I was in Eden Garden....witnessed this maestro taking on Andy Roberts, Vanburn Holder, Keith Boyce, Lance Gibbs. It was a classic inning
Bharat Mata ki Jai.
Congratulations.
Cricket Vishvanath
Sir Thank You, Vishy was my favorite cricketer. His style and speed of bat and foot work was fun to watch
I consider Vishwanath as all time greatest batsman and the most honest cricketer of our country
Thanks for sharing Gundappa विश्वनाथ. I am great fan of विश्वनाथ
Vishwanath ;was the iron man of cricket. I salute his marvellous batting
Extremely well presented video on great Vishwanth. Rehan Fazal deserves all the praise. This is finest resume of little master. I must confess honesty of great Sunny for rating Grandpa higher than himself so did Lilly, the legendary fast bowler.
Great of Indian cricket Vishwanath. His square cuts were really legendary. We were kids and used to watch his matches on Doordarshan.
He was among the utmost best of his times
I saw him live very few times in 1982 Pakistan series, perhaps his last series, he could not play up to his potential in that series
He was our captain in golden jubilee test against England and still remember how he called back Ian Botham despite being given out by umpire, a real sportsman spirit
A great player, a great human
Feel proud that he is an Indian
Love you vishi
I always think.he was best Batsman of Indian cricket iam hv seen his kolkata ining against WI in which he hits 52/139runs n India won that test.He was great

My favourite vishy .. no one can play square cut better than Great Vishy
Not the Takat, but, the Nazakat. Simply outstanding.A Sawambhu….Watching him play might give an organism to a real cricket lover. Sincere apologies for my language.Kindly forgive.
Fantastic....G R Wishwanath is my very very favorite player...Amazingly described here..I am much glad to listen everything here..!!!
True gem of Indian cricket. Really great feeling to hear about him.
Rehan jaisa versatile journalist Kam hai...music,cricket,politics har news me expert
Tiger Pataudi and Gundappa vishwanath were legend
I am glad to know that Gavaskar treated Vishy as a better batsman than himself. It is news for me.
Wrist Assured is the most apropriate title for his biography.
Pataudi had the talent to spot talent and nurture it.
शुरुवात की प्रवेशी 💥🔥🕶️😯👏🤯🥵

It was the only occasion when everyone in my family supported me without any complaint. Bcoz everybody knew - that I m an ordinant fan of Vishy & even today!!
I took my pocket transistor into the class room , and most of the times our teachers joined us in listening to the commentary
Vishi was perfect n technical batsman. In many testmatches he has shown classical wristy shots especiall when he had hitted sqare cuts n loafted shots.He was called the little master of our team.
Salutes to my school days hero, Vishwanath. Respects Sir.

I was lucky to have lived thru those times. The Madras test, I can never forget. I ve never liked any cricketer more than Viswanath.
You are my first hero of cricket followed by Kapil sir
He is truely the Sheet Anchor. If any one can be compared to his style and cuts, it is only Brian Lara. Real artists with bat. .
Sir my bad luck that I did no show their unic batting but you explain better. He will always our great legend of cricket thanks
Sunil Gavaskar, G. Viswanath, Dillip Sardesai.... legendary trio of 70s... 🔥
Dilip vengsarkar was great not sardesai
In addition, Ajit Wadekar, Prasanna, Bedi, Chandrashekhar, Venkatraghvan, Eknath Solkar, Abid Ali, Farukh Engineer, Karsan Ghavri, Madanlal. What a fantastic team it was. 🏆📯
if not better he was not less than Gavaskar
Rihan Bhai...❤
U are best Rehan sir ! Pranam
All time great sir viswa
Welcome sir
Sir you are great and you voice just like krishna Kumar bharghav
His cover drive was so beatiful to watch. He was fully matured batsman . he was playing cricket whethr zonal. League friendly Ranji or test for good play. So he is great. Since 1956 I watching cricket matches but I found the best to my thinking only Vishy Salim Kapil Bedi chandra Sunil Dhoni and Yuvi were best to my judgement . need comments if any
Natho ke nath vishwanath... My fav batsman... Luckily I have seen him playing...
Great sir
Sir you are simply great of late cutter and my favourite. When I came to know about cricket I know only one name and that is gundpa vishwanath.
One of the great batsman
India🇮🇳 ever have.....
Thank Sir so lovely voice
Great tribute to a great batsman
Great job Sir, thank you so much 🙏
Gavaskar was the Arithmetics of baiting While Visvanath was the Science of baiting .
#Natural #batsman #Solid temperament ♡=#Gundappa
Sahi introduction diya hai aapnay, warna ham us mahan khiladi ko bhula jaa rahay thay.
विश्वनाथ सचमुच गावस्कर से अच्छे बल्लेबाज़ थे। मैने विश्वनाथ को वेस्टइंडीज़ के ख़िलाफ़ 1974 1975 खेलते देखा है।

G R Vishwanath has written art from his bat by square cut n late cut.
He was cool & committed for win
Pls upload any video of Gundappa Vishvanaath. Hum dekh nhi paye unhe khelte hue
Nice explanation
Very thrilling history
Sir I am big fan of.allah apko sehat aur zindagi dey ameen
The greatest Indian batsman.
Legend, great batsman of india
He was the best square cut driver in his era.
Good
I admire Gavaskar but I Worship Visvanath " Col Venhgsarkar ""
To me vishy is above all like gavaskar tendulkar etc. Pure artist with bat than anyone. He is. Cricket illaya raja
Nice content👌, BBC
Magician of wrists!!
ये बात सही है वो इनसे अच्छा और फास्ट खेलते थे।
मै ब्यक्तिगत रूप से विश्वनाथ सर को दुनिया का सबसे सफल बल्लेबाज मानता हूं खासकर स्टेट छक्का मारने में उस समय से लेकर आज तक कोई बल्लेबाज उनकी बराबरी नही कर सका क्योंकि उस दौर के गेंदबाज डी के मैकेंजी जिसकी गेंद गति 145 किलोमीटर पर स्टेट छक्का मारना बहुत ही मुश्किल था ?

शतक से चूके,
पर इतनी कलात्मक पारी और न देखी, ऐसा वो सभी मानते है जो देखे थे।
सचिन लारा कोहली की महान पारियां देखने के बाद भी। कलात्मक बैटिंग में - डेविड गोवर, जहीर अब्बास के अलावे कोई टक्कर नहीं ले सकता।
He is All time Great
Only BBC
Best free stoke batsman of India.
Superb batsman
Jubli match maine suna tha , sub ne Vishvnath ko zimmedar bataye .Lekin such yeh hai :
Jhooth bole kar jeetne se behtar hai such bole kar haar jaana.
Vishva nath zindabaad.
Main aaj tak vishvnath ko zimmedar samajhta tha .
रेहान जी आप सुनी कहानी बता रहे हैं।हमने तो runnig commentry सुनी है उस पारी की।
विश्वनाथ बेस्ट बल्लेबाज है

He was great cricketer those year’s over 40 is good average wicket wasn’t like what we have now those were bowlers friendly peaches
Happy Hanuman Jayanti
Very nice
Fazal ka main fan hu
Good🙏
Undoubtedly Vishi was. a better batsman
Can you make one on Salim Durrani Rgds Shyamal Bhattacharjee
डेनिस एमिस लिली और Thompson को नहीं खेल पाए पर हमारे गावस्कर और विश्वनाथ उनको इन लोगों से अच्छा खेले।
Vishi ney 1969 mey Indian cricket ko nayi sanjivni di thi!
