Just observed/thought...How many of these players and commentators involved in the overall match are now deceased❤ -Tony Greig❣ -John Edrich❣ -Derek Underwood❣ -Mike Denness❣ -Wasim Raja❣💚 -Richie Beanud❣💛 -Freddie Trueman❣

So who invented that stupid start to the run up first? Asif Masood or Richard Hadlee?

The early signs of the Glos one day machine of the 00s were emerging here. Jack Russell, Mike Smith, Matt Windows, Mark Alleyne, Martyn Ball, all had much success to come in the short formats for Glos. But they didn't really take off as a one day side until they signed Kim Barnett and Ian Harvey in the late 90s, and then Craig Spearman in 2002. I spent many an enjoyable day at the County Ground in the 00s watching that Glos team beat all-comers!

Thank you for uploading this. I enjoyed watching it thoroughly

I was there aged 12. "Stand up for the west country" ringing out the whole second innings. Jack Russell absolutely miles out his crease backing up. Would be run out today.

Hi Paul, do you have any other Surrey games from between 1993-1996? Thank you for this!

Shame about the end, but I think that Gloucestershire won reasonably comfortably. Lancashire used to be 🏏 cricketing animals in the One Day Arena, but Gloucestershire had started to gain a reputation as a seriously good outfit around this time and deserved it on the day here. The Lancs won their first One Day competition, the old John Player Sunday League in 69, retained it in 70, won three Gillette Cups on the trot - 70, 71, 72 and then again in 75. Then they went through a bit of a slump by their standards in the eighties, only winning the Benson & Hedges Cup in 84 followed by the Sunday League in 89 and then further Gillette/Friends Provident success in 90, 96 and 98, more B&H success in 90, 95 and 96, with a couple more Sunday Leagues thrown in for good measure in 98 and 99. In fairly recent times they’ve yo-yo-yoed between the the First and Second Division of the County Championship, with the NatWest T20 Blast being their last major silverware in the new attention deficit hit and giggle era in 2015. But they’ll be back. And when they do, I hope we are ready for them. 😂 Bring on some Rose’s action! At least we’ve a shed load of County Championships, if not as much One Day clout as them.

The match that Ben Holioake lit up on his debut. A sad case of what might have been … he never quite fulfilled his potential. And then a sad end speeding on a slippy surface, according to the Australian police statement at the time. The Spokesman said that it was towards the end of summer and that there was oil on the road, the weather being hot and dry so that it couldn’t get washed away. Here at least, he was king for a day, with a thrilling shot a ball innings, containing 11 fours and a six out of a personal score of 61 - the vast majority of his runs coming in boundaries.

World class Bishen far too good for Bumble

Zimbabwe won 4 games from the 6 and made top in group but unfortunately they lost in the final

Was nice to watch, but not a specially memorable game. But some well-known names in those teams of old!

I remember, years and years ago, watching a match at Cheltenham. I can't recall who Gloucester were playing but I remember that Dave Thomas, the former Surrey player, was bowling and I thought it looked pretty quick. Lo and behold, Jack Russell chose to stand up to him and kept as easily as if he were keeping to a particularly slow village off spinner. The best keeper that I have ever seen and, if I were picking an all-time world eleven, would be the first on my list.

Funny batting style by g flower

How many new balls used in this match lol 😂

1999 odi in white jersey…?

Ajj ke 19 sal ke bachhe kya jane Zimbabwe aur Westindies ko.

This WI looks even worse on performance!!

This was a very fine Pakistan team. They had at least 7 good bowling options, and they batted all the way down. Only Masood was a genuine tail ender.

9:35 Richie Benaud talks here about the BBC's 'special camera' when the only thing that is special is that the BBC has actually got 2 cameras, one at each end !

Endy gendy best

😮

Willey opened the batting, despite Larkins and Cook bothe being in the side. Interesting...

What a team was Zimbabweans🇿🇼

Which ground is this?

Brilliant

The Aussies were 40 or 50 or so short, and, as usual, didnt bat through. Double your score after 30 gives the Aussies 342! England about the same.

Worcestershire scored at 3.2 in their first innings!

Allan Lamb bowling at the end making a bit of a mockery of a World Cup game. Good that they use net run rate now so that teams really need to bowl their best all the time and stop that kind of nonsense. Looked like Lamb and the England team were having a good time though.

Brilliant memories. Dear Paul, do you, by by chance, have recordings of matches played by Gloucestershire featuring Zaheer Abbas or Glamorgan with Majid Khan. Would love to see them.

Well played cuz.

Twoes batting brilliant ❤

I watched it live on dd national rozer did batting like t 20

Jack ,sun hat, sunglasses not like these so called keepers today with helmets on,,bob ,jack and knotty didn't one their hands were so good

‘Our special camera at the Nursery End’.

This is the problem with west indies, at some point they didn't have bowlers, and those that they had weren't bowling with passion. It costed them alot.

And official scorers! That's awesome ❤

What a cool odi! In the whites and red ball

4th odi

Was this the Pro40 match which had the spot-fixing incident involving Mervyn Westfield and Danish Kaneria?

Zaheer playing & paving the way for T20 Cricket... All the way back in 1974😂

I was there, as a Worcestershire fan it was a disappointing match. Great memories of this era.

@paulp9557 Hello again. Do you have Worcestershire vs. Lancashire (C&G Trophy, August 9th, 2003)? I remember it was broadcast live on Channel 4.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I was 32 at the time...Great days, free-to-watch cricket on and Bennaud commentating The BBC, Back then the 'Beeb' were there for the viewers, and not the woke, partisan and biased disgrace they've become today. There was no paying through the nose to watch any sport in those days, not just cricket, now we pay them more for literally nothing! Oh I remember it well. Thanks for the memories of 20" CRT screens and happy days when we weren't all screwed over in the UK for every penny that the shops, manufacturers, energy companies, garages, insurance companies and the government could get out of us, and all for the privilege of us getting less and less of everything for it. In his autobiography, Mark Nicholas says that his celebration of the catch off Fleming was 'embarrassing to watch', I personally don't think it was, but it was a bloody good catch then, and still is now.

I would have been 22 and remember that era very well!

The decision to give Michael Vaughan out LBW here was a real shocker ! 24:56

Catches win matches
