I was only going to sift through and just see what was on here, but i became so gripped and enthralled, i watched the entire video. Marvellous memories, especially those great games of the 80s when i was a child/teenager...and with 2 gentlemen of the calibre of Jim Swanton and Tim Rice, both hugely knowledgeable about the game, made it even more watchable. I wish it was 1991 again, when this video was made.

Brilliant. Felt sorry for Bedser as he lost some years due to world war 2 . Compton batting was pure joy , he was devastating on leg side .Thanks .
This is criminally underviewed.
More cricket fans should watch this masterpiece.
what a shame!!
I absolutely agree. I've seen all the highlights before, and the 63 test between England and the Windies, was cricket heaven.
After last year's behaviour in the long room, I think people will be viewing this less often!
Magnificent documentary! Thank you so much for uploading, Sir!
I've been there,from Australia. Hallow place.
Richie Benaud at his best.
Been 😁
Fred Trueman bowling big outswingers with no 3rd Man?? even schoolboys know thats essential - no surprise he went for 12 off first 3 balls
Swanton was apparently full of his own self importance
