I'm now a month away from being 78. I feel so lucky to have witnessed so many great England cricketers during my life. But I never expected these two gentlemen to end up the legends they are today, as I watched them in their younger day. England are so passionate about the game and it comes through on the commentary and the crowds when we play on our home pitches.
Icon of England's bowling obvious ideal of Jimmy which is truly a sensational idealism of Jimmy Anderson bob Willis accuracy was very exceptional as bowl harder onto the pitch... Remarkable legends followed by their icons 😎😄❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I saw his famous Headingly stint in 81 watching him steam in vs Oz. Brierley forgave him the odd no ball to give him free rein & for a 14yr old what a treat!! Bob Willis RIP.
Brilliant tribute by two mod day greats to a great bowler ,Robert George Dylan Willis ,who during his time ,tore in relentlessly with his arms flailing ,grim and menacing all the time. Recall reading his book where he propounded the merits of pounding the pavements on cold ,grey english days that prepared him for the hard yards , running in on hot coals.watched him at Chennai in 77&82 under Greig& fletcher give it his all in flat,slow pitches.His bowling action,the angular run up was perhaps the most that was impersonated by young school boys. His punditry at Sky tv after his career with a droning tone ,always was dripped with pungent sarcasm and sharp observations.He was never one to mince his words.🎉❤
Casting my mind back to the 70s… me, my team mates, any other young teen bowler - you’d see us all trying to copy Bob Willis’s action whenever possible. Iconic.
I "vaguely" remember the '81 ashes. Being English I must confess that the person that got me into cricket was Viv Richards.(Glory fan?) We've had great bowlers since.🏴
Little cut away after the poem. Probably just clipped the top of Jimmy’s off stump, that did. Nice to see, and two modern hero’s paying their respects to theirs. ❤
Curtly Ambrose on fire in Australia, that total swine McGrath filleting England, and Bob Willis at Headingly. There are times when you see batsmen have very little chance. No matter who you support, you must love those moments when the fast bowlers rule the roost. It doesn't happen often enough.

Fabulous tribute from two lovely, legendary guys. Thanks, Bob. Thanks, James. Thankyou, Broady.
Legendary Duo ❤ Broaderson ...love from India 🇮🇳
"Never ever give up". Words to live by.
Outstanding and heart-felt. All three - not just English icons but cricket icons.
Great piece, great tribute, great players.
Yep I was privileged to see him live, such a long run up, and the pace, especially during the time when the West Indies were at the best
Anderson and Broad ❤
What a wonderful tribute to Big Bob.....
Two good young lads that happen to have, like the great Bob, been great bowlers.
Beautiful bit from JA and Stuart
An absolute bastion of the English game, a stalwart, a workhorse, Bob had it all, R.I.P
Very heart felt and lovely tribute
A lovely tribute from the very best. Thanks Stuart and Jimmy.
Big Bob really was one of the greats. Really miss him on telly. Great pundit.
Brilliantly done Broad and Anderson. Huge respect for this.
Fantastic. This is a proper tribute to an English great.
To Bob….. and the two of you England’s BEST

Missing both of in cricket field
'Never ever give up'....Sadly Bob did give up...but he put up one hell of a fight!
RIP - RDG Willis MBE.
Don’t think you ever give up with cancer, think you accept what’s going to happen in the end in his position but he kept plugging away
Nice tribute lads.respect so important😊
Beautiful !
Wonderful tribute. Respect:-)
Great tribute from two of England's greats who like Bob will go on to great success whether it be in a coaching role or as commentators.
My two favourite Legends. They like Wasim and Waqar of Pakistan. What a great bowling pair. And ofcourse “OH JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY” 😍
Two great bowler's
Anderson looking like a Hollywood hero .
Henry Cavill
For Indians any white person is a hollywood hero
Legends on a Legend 💯
Incredible watching two legends discussing another

What a brilliant double act. ;-)
Lovely to see. Honour and respect.
8 for 43..... enough said.
Jimmy❤❤Broad
Really well done
Beautiful - thank you.
I remember seeing him and his second wife at Mortlake station. Barnes Green just a few mins walk away. Nice tribute this.
That was genuinely lovely and moving. :)
Legends ❤❤❤❤ Stuart Broad and James Anderson 😍😍😍😍😍😍🫶🫶🫶🫶

Anderson and Broad back together ❤
This is the kind of stuff that sets cricket apart from other sports. Absolute class
Well done guys,
The Weather seems to be very Pleasant Meanwhile I am Baking here in the 48°C Heat In New Delhi
Well Charles...

1038 test wickets ❤️
Great
Anderson warming up to being in front of the camera, aye
Anderson could play james bond
Marty Mcfly wants his jacket back
Two legends under clouds talking about the other legend under cloud.
@@djstuc No one remembers the 43rd position
@@djstuc i don't mind...As far as u don't agree that Anderson is a fraud and Glenn McGrath is the ultimate GOAT of fast bowlers.
@@rohanyeole6520dumbass he has 991 wickets in total. And the only pacer to get 704 wickets.
@@rohanyeole6520came out from a chap that never hit the cricket ground. How ironic!
Lockdown kid spotted.
Jimmy doesn't spend his money on tailoring it seems.
Both are not looking cricketers looks like Hollywood actors
What is jimmy wearing? Looks like a science fiction character
Anderson is the youngest looking 40 year old I've seen
