One of the most amazing performances in Cricketing history. Australia played a series of supertests in 1971-72 against a "World 11" led by Gary Sobers. In the second supertest at Perth, Lillee grabbed 8/29 to discuss the World 11 for 59. Highlights and commentary.

FYI, This match is also memorable for a superb century by Rohan Kanhai in the second innings.

  • A great cricketer is great, whether he be from England, Aussie, SA, India, Pakistan, Windies or wherever. Why can't we just enjoy watching the very best in the business, whererever they may hail from?

  • I was imnpressed by the humour and pleasantness of Sir Gary Sobers.

  • @thebrooksy011 I have looked at the stats but those guys had bad tours in 1 or 2 countries.

    But in Lille's case, he toured the Windies and the sub-continent once but never played there again to save his average. He was gutless and didn't have the courage to go there again.

    So.......I think your the only idiot around here!

  • @TheFreeForever so according to you shane warne is average also cos he struggled on sub continent.and murali would be avg cos he struggled to take wickets against australia in australia.and brian lara is not that good cos he avg less than his test avg against australia.wake up you idiot and look at the stats as a whole over a career.

  • what an attacking field

  • One of the most complete fast bowlers of all time!

  • @eusebium7 LOL

    You make me laugh really hard!

    Not only did he fail in Pak but also, Windies and SL. Don't believe me then go check out his averages on cricinfo stat sguru.

  • @TheFreeForever Rubbish you have no idea what you are talking about. Those Pakistan pitches were prepared specifically to make the Australian pacemen ineffective. They were complete roads. Most of the wickets Pakistani pacemen took in their own country, in any case, were achieved through their own ball tampering methods.

  • these wickets should have been included in his test total, bowling against the best in the world is far superior than facing teams like Bangladesh

  • @dosh225 LOL

    Compare his record in the Sub-continent and the Windies to other legendary bowlers!

  • @TheFreeForever Who's better seriously don't talk shit now???? look at all the stats!! thats why they are all there, and don't forget he played on for years after back problems...

  • @bannedspencer Hmm.......

    Then tell me why Ian Chappell who captained Lille said "He was a great bowler but not adaptable"?
