Wonderful stuff. Part 2 here, if you want to see Nasser practising his square cuts and Atherton getting ready for Shane Warne (in no way).
From about the same era, you may wish to see Richie Benaud make a young whippersnapper a million times better. Notice him also bypass Tony Lewis and stare straight down the lens to establish control in time-honoured manner: 'it's a war out there.' I used to own the VHS of this. Sadly I can't find the other tape I had on YouTube in which Boycott savagely berates his young charge until the poor guy can hardly hold a bat any more.
"Nasser is a flamboyant player". Guffaw

ReplyDeleteYes, I had to laugh at that Nasser line. Mind you, on his day...(literally, his one day, Edgbaston 97).
