I am an Indian From my school days 6th standard 1982 till today 17/11/2021 I am fan of Viv. When i see him i get confidence on me. I am lucky in my play of cricket i got his name by people because i used to imitate same.

I thought he was the best ever! He stood out in an incredible team, especially when you have these outstanding Australian players giving him such high praise.
@martinhardcastle9970 Жыл бұрын
Best ever, in a county game once Viv played and missed 5 balls in a row, the bowler told him it's red, weighs 5 ounces and is round. The last ball Viv hit it out of the ground, he told the bowler you know what it looks like go and find it. BRILLIANT.

We were so lucky to have Viv, Joel & Botham at Somerset when they were at their best. I remember watching Viv destroy Bob Willis at Clarence Park, Weston Super Mare. Me and my mate had said that we would have a ping every time he hit a 6, not been that drunk at a cricket match, he scored over 200 runs that day.

Especially when you consider the new boundary laws. So with modern bats,it's safe to say add 20 to 25 percent of his test runs on top. Which theoretically not only takes him past ten thousand runs,but also makes his average close to 62 or 63. So he's right up there with Barry Richards and Graeme Pollock amongst others such as Lara,Tendulkar and Sobers. A great batsman to watch, throughout his career. 🤣👍🍺
