This brought tears to my eyes. As a Trinidadian, as a little boy grew up in the early 90's who lived 10 minutes away from the Queen's Park Oval, I remember so vividly Sir Curtly Ambrose, Courtney Walsh, Brian Lara and Shivnarine Chanderpaul defeating the English, Indians, South Africans, Australians, Pakistanis and Kiwis. I am so proud that these men represented the Caribbean so well. So happy to se Sir Ambrose looking well.
Growing up in the 90's I could never quite appreciate the quality of bowlers such as Ambrose, Akram, Donald etc. Now when I look at the current lot of bowlers, I realise what a golden era of cricket that truly turned out to be.
@@paulrichards6894 fair point. But with competition of Akram as a swinging magician and donald as a brutal pace machine, Ambrose had tough competition. And ive not even brought in McGrath and Waqar in yet. :D
How can such a humble, joyous man have such a killer instinct. Sir Curtly was my all time favourite bowler, what a humble man and an absolute legend of the game. He would still dominate in todays game.
Curtly has smiled more here than his entire career! We can see him smile and relish all those magnificent memories of contests and conquests against opponents around the world! What a player! Awe-inspiring Ambrose!
@@lawrencedosithee7502 That's right, he's laughed enough - but he's been feared far more often. The night that Dean Jones asked him to take off the white wristbands ended with Ian Healy playing all over the world's slowest slow ball, and the entire field laughing and Curtly bending over at the waist he was laughing so hard. It's at the end of the video on RUclips of Dean Jones recounting that incident, the whole video is worth watching. ruclips.net/video/ziQ2D9ivqpg/видео.html
Play a drive against Curtly?!? Better find gaps between slips&gully,u might succeed getting some runs, only if u are lucky not to get caught !! 'Curtly is very curt', u know!❣️
Same here.. I also copied his action.. He was also my Favt..... My Favt bowlers were 1. Srinath from india 2. Anil Kimble from india 3. Ambrose from westindies 4. Shanewarne from Aust...
He's the quintessential fast bowler.That rhythmic run up,that pace and bounce,that metronomic accuracy,the movement he got and of course that deathly stare and silent mouth- damn he was just a silent assassin! Absolute pleasure to watch.My all time favorite!
I rarely heard Curtly speak during his spectacular career. Hearing him here, I now understand how precision, planning, guile and unerring focus made him such a devastating force during an illustrious career. 🙏🙏🙏
What a fun interview. And what an amazing person! Hard to imagine this is the same guy who never spoke a word to anyone or smiled. I love Curtly Ambrose
Dude this makes me so happy. Legends of the game, massive respect for each other, and a treasure trove of knowledge and anecdotes. Sir Curtly's mom used to ring the bell at the village church for every wicket he took in test cricket - I imagine that bell is well worn-out with 405 rings!
Throughout the 90s, Nobody was more feared than Curtley Ambrose. The most intimidating sight for a batsmen was to see Ambrose running towards you to bowl. All the great batsmen said that
What a well spoken, thoughtful, intelligent, man, and a terrifying, incendiary bowler, a sublime juxtaposition, plus you can see how competitive Michael Atherton was and still is!
@@karlditz8631 What a myopic truly asinine question!! it does not deserve a response but I will humor you, and use brevity to hold your attention, As curtly used few words on and off the pitch and let his bowling do the talking, it was the first time I had the privilege to listen to him at length, regardless of color, ethnicity, gender, I would have said the same thing! So please leave your vapid politically correct imputations, for those of a more feeble mind, I believe each person should be judged on there individuality and contribution " greatness does not discriminate it is a choice" The irony of your last name does not escape me!
What a down to earth man. Sir Ambrose along with Sir Walsh were such an impeccable pair . World cricket will never produce such great bowlers again . Only history will have it in records . Love & respect for both with all my soul .
Being a cricket child from 1986, I have admired Ambrose a lot. It is my pleasure to see him have a wonderful career and give us our happiness. Thanks Sirre. ❤❤❤
My favourite fast bowler - the guy was a machine. Walsh and Ambrose - the best opening partnership I've seen. Taught me that line and length is everything. And that pitch at Sabina Park - you can see the batters' reflections in it.....
Yessir I love a good back and forth test match..always feel satisfied no matter the result.love the struggle of playing 5 days str8 and the mental part of it day to day👌🏿
@@davidantony2734 maan too true and sad how they are killing test cricket.😪as a boy growing in the west indies that was the gold standard for us all as cricket fans,glued to the TV on days i wasnt at primary school lol..but i feel many of the rule changes made a bit of a mockery out of test cricket and the other format too(thanks ICC😒)
God I love Curtly Ambrose.... I grew up as a kid in outback NSW and I was a massive West Indies fan..... Watching Walsh, Ambrose, Bishop was so awesome and then the batters in Richie Richardson, Carl Hooper, Brian Lara, Jimmy Adams while not the best team at the time but could take it up too any team at the time.
what a bowler...... i started admiring fast bowlers seeing Curtly & Courtney running on the Australian grounds during their 90's tours..... God his celebrations were awesome too!
Sir Curtly Ambrose, my all time hero not as a fast bowler but as a cricketer. Lovely man, great passion. Spent hours every day in childhood talking about him, his lovely action and reaction after taking wickets. My saluate to this great legend of the game.
I was lucky to meet him in person while I was a student at RMIT in Melbourne During West Indies tour of Australia in early 90s along with Joel Garner a towering figure himself very soft spoken Gentle Giants and probably curtly the best bowler ever to play cricket with Malcolm Marshall and Michael Holding just right up there
Curtly's voice is a perfect match for his cricket persona. I loved watching those 90s Windies teams, even as they ripped through my Australian team's batting lineups!
All the gentlemen featuring in this vid are highly respected and are indeed very eloquent. They’ve all made outstanding contributions to the world of cricket for which we owe them an indebtedness. They will never ever be forgotten and may God bless them all!
What a legend Sir Curtley Ambrose.. Marshall was end of his cricketing career. But Ambrose and Walsh were lovely to watch. Hopefully WI should revive soon. Atherton exactly said the issue. You cannot go forward when WI bowlers are bowling during 80 s and 90.s
Most consistently dangerous bowler I've ever seen, as an Australian born in the 1980s. Not just for taking wickets, but he was physically dangerous in a way other legendary bowlers of his time were not (e.g. Warne, Akram). But also I loved watching him bowl, just his action and his demeanour, even if it meant he was crushing the Aussie top order - I couldn't turn away!
My all time favorite bowler.. Do our young Windies fast bowlers even sit and chat with this guy.. So happy I was born in the era to enjoy this guy.. So many great memories
Wow... Giants can be so Gentle. Beautiful Cherished memories from childhood, Ambrose and Walsh were towering images of the game then. Beautifully produced.
I’d love to have a holiday to the WIndies, especially as they have the weather, the scenery, beaches, sea and firstly the people. I’d sit and listen him for hours how he’d tear us apart. Amazing player and great attitude.
This man ... 🙏, I started playing cricket after watching him bowl. My inspiration and I have to thank him for the love I have for this great game. Long live king Curtly!
Dean Jones saying his arm pads were distracting and the umpire making him take it off. I thought Jones was gona get killed the way Ambrose looked at him lol
My favourite ever player. He was a brilliant bowler. It’s been 23 years since he retired and no one has stepped up from the west indies. Also he was already a great bowler in 88/89 in Australia.
Love sir Curtly Ambrose. Fantastic fast bowler. Great athlete and a professional. Delight to see him running in to bowl and taking wickets. Great ambassador to his nation. Love and respect from Pakistan.
Absolute freak. Ended his career with an average of 20.99. Shows what a terror he was in his prime. Tall, probing length, seaming in and out...nightmare.
Wonderful bowler. Cannot forget that Barbados game where he made target of 120 made mountain of a task for Ind team. If you talk about limited over matches so miserly that 19 or 20 runs in 10 overs was the routine for him.
Great interview. Enjoyed every moment. Good company in Atherton and Nasser. Nice questions and well prepared interviewer too. What a man Ambrose is? Loved him bowling with Walsh.
Delighted this popped up on my recommended. I find it crazy that the Windies had such superstar players during the 90s and yet 10/15/20+ years later there hasn't been a second generation of the kids that grew up watching them.
I was only 15 when I was watching Sir Frank Worrel series 1994-95, Cutely and Steve Waugh ugly fight still in front of eyes, will be forever and this was the first test series watched over night. What a legend, he and Walsh. Gentleman Pair, LOVE FROM INDIA.... 😀
Legends of the game , true passion, fire in the belly and sense of patriotism. Cricket then was no less than any other sport when you were representing your country. Now it has all watered down, I don't even know the players playing these days. Hope such an era comes back.
Excellent piece. Always great to hear these guys chewing the fat over their careers. Ambrose was truly terrifying. He created an aura of fear to go with his talent - nothing wrong with that, psychology has always been a big part of sport. Viv Richards did it through his swagger, Curtly did it with a glare down the wicket.
23:28 Curtly Ambrose gave us many great moments down the years but i really enjoyed that one the best lol that little glint in his eye and chuckle after impersonating Walsh is just priceless😂 #legend
80s and 90s were golden era of Indies cricket. Ambrose, Walsh, Garner, Holding and Marshall - formidable bowling force. Batting too - with Viv Richards. Gosh - Viv was like a lion roaming about the crease and going on with his business. Amazing era. Didn't know the witty side of Ambrose. Nice.
This brought tears to my eyes. As a Trinidadian, as a little boy grew up in the early 90's who lived 10 minutes away from the Queen's Park Oval, I remember so vividly Sir Curtly Ambrose, Courtney Walsh, Brian Lara and Shivnarine Chanderpaul defeating the English, Indians, South Africans, Australians, Pakistanis and Kiwis.

Nostalgic memories of that oval jumping like an old country church ??
Yeah as an English man I have to say the West Indies were a dominant force in cricket.
@alantully9482 Cheers mate. You guys always brought your A game whenever we played. It was a pleasure having your country compete.
You are right sir
"You wanna drive, you buy a car"...great quote. What a lovely man, but what a terrifying bowler!
Lol, that's so funny.....makes me 😃
As soon as he said it I paused the vid. Knew it would be top comment. Lol. Pure class.
Great recap on the famous Sir Curtley Gentleman Ambrose.
Þ
Curtley is an all time great, however, I recall Michael Holding making this quote first?
Malcolm and Ambrose.. greatest fast bowlers of the game. Legends
Legend. Sir Curtely Ambrose was a gem of a player. Apart from his bowling achivements he is a great human being. A legend. 🙏

Even more so, Morne Morkel with more bounce, accuracy and far more hostile. He'd be the best in the world now too.
Curtly has smiled more here than his entire career! We can see him smile and relish all those magnificent memories of contests and conquests against opponents around the world! What a player! Awe-inspiring Ambrose!
I am a big fan of him

lovely personality. the fact that he took 400 wicket without sledging a single word. Respect man respect.
Ummm not exactly check out his video with inzy and of course that battle with waugh
Steve Waugh was a tough nut, probably one of the only batsmen to challenge Ambrose verbally.
@@rahultiwari-dx8qo bruh

The most dangerous and intimidating bowler of the 90s. Respect and love from India.
“I hate to see batsman driving, if you wanna drive, you go buy a car”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Play a drive against Curtly?!? Better find gaps between slips&gully,u might succeed getting some runs, only if u are lucky not to get caught !!
'Curtly is very curt', u know!❣️
I bet batsmen around the world wished Curtly wasn't such an obedient child. One of the all time great bowlers and a great bloke.
What a Legend. Childhood favorite of mine. Bowled pace and copied his action. Thank u Curtly.
Rightly said bro
Same here.. I also copied his action.. He was also my Favt..... My Favt bowlers were
1. Srinath from india
2. Anil Kimble from india
3. Ambrose from westindies
4. Shanewarne from Aust...
"Curtly talk to no man"...how refreshing to hear him speak after all those years of silent glares! Epic stuff, and such a lovely smile!
Yeah I'm loving it too - just thinking about all the little things I remember him doing in games...absolute champion.
The living legend of cricket Sir Curtly Ambrose . Pray for your good health and prosperity
The best cricketing interview i've ever seen. What an absolute gem of a person. Legend.....absolute nostalgia for all 90s kids....

Could listen to him for ages . A gem of a man and a legend of the game .
The 90s was best era for batsmen facing pure pace and spin. Loved watching Ambrose DESTROY AUSTRALIA 🏏🏏🏏🏏🏏
Doesn’t even look like he’s aged. 😂
He hasn’t- maybe he doesn’t drink much

Still remember the first time seeing him bowl. Every fiery ball bowled in the hood made you an Ambrose. Such a legend.
