@Lefferable If you looked at him he'd beat you down. Don't even look at the great man!!!! Fucking legend that dude. I love his comment to the batsman "rock back and do the business"....indeed!
Are you crazy, the KING used to go on one knee and sweep for 6 with ease, i presume you have never seen the 1979 world cup final or 1980 lords testmatch and countless other innings.Seriously the GREAT MAN had every textbook shot in the book, i think he just got bored of playing them after a while and just relied on using his magnificent eye and timing.I get the joke though your right the King doesn't go on his knees for anyone.
Never seen Viv's leg in the air while playing a shot. Both feet on the ground and great balance. As far as I can remember , the only player. I think all others play some shots with one leg in the air. Don't remember shot 'on his knees' either. The KING doesn't go on his knees. does he?
It is my belief that natural geniuses make very poor coaches. It's not really Richards' cup of tea because he wouldn't be able to appreciate the limitations of an ordinary young batsman.
viv, i wouldve thought it wouldve been better to learn to play defence properly first, then learn to play attacking shots as an extension of defence, but if you say the other way around, then next season the other way around it is!
i've got this whole series on VHS, if you have a look I've uploaded the richie benaud leg spin section, and i've got the dennis lillee fast bowling section ripped somewhere but not uploaded.
This batsman is genuinely good. But batting is about mentality not just ability. Defence, attack and gamesmanship are the right combination.
