Cricket Legends - Gary Sobers

[@raystephens1142]

For 48 years my Dad and I have spoken Cricket EVERY hour. The same man’s name pops up. “Son, you just don’t know how good he was…” My dad’s favourite player so of course, I’ll take his wisdom. From St Helens, Lancashire.

[@drazmarinic5991]

Scored 180 in test for world 11 took 8 wickets with left arm swing ,,leg spin and off break what other cricketer in history could do that,most say greatest all rounder ,,greatest cricketer ever full stop!

[@ashtongoorachan5168]

The two greatest cricketers to walk the field Sir Don Bradman and Sir Garfield Sobers.

[@marjoriemckenzie4247]

Excellent Interview with Sir Garfield Sobers, one of the Greatest, if Not the Greatest All Round Cricketer. I remember when I was in England and he was the Captain for the first time in 1966 and Sir Frank Worrell was the Manager when the West Indies won the match @ Lord's. That was the last time that I saw him "in person" It is truly a blessing that he is still Alive and you were able to conduct this interview. Kudos to you.👏👏👍👍

[@gopalakrishnaravulapalli1369]

The greatest cricketer ever and above everything a great character

[@terminusest9179]

We're truly blessed to still have Sir Garfield around still to share his experiences of his career. It will be a sad day when the time comes when he has to go and I hope the cricketing world will honour him for the achievements and contributions he has made to cricket.

[@craigedwards2940]

I agree. Probably the best cricketer and best Barbadian that has ever lived.

[@truth7653]

Complete cricketer batting, bowling, fielding, captaincy, cavalier style, extraordinary man also!!!! Too good, too good & too good.

[@deepakruparel3681]

What grace, what elegance,. The greatest and a great human being

[@gaurasi]

Sobers... The greatest ever...

[@simontrencher8245]

Guaruv Dwivedi - Without a doubt ...

[@rezaabasali9975]

The #quintessential West Indian cricketer who is the living #embodiment of West Indian cricket history, Meeting this legend personally some years ago at the QP Oval remains simply a #surreal experience..

[@chrishooper8260]

Sir Garfield's 100 percent correct game is much easier today. Not only cricket . All sports were much more interesting and better to watch back then. Real skill.

[@JULIA-e7k]

Opinions may differ but being a good man being is most important Such a humble gentleman Observe and learn 🏏 🎒 📚

[@richardgreaves9660]

A great cricketer and a greater human being

[@keithrobertson3877]

As a Barbadian.,thank you so much for posting this interview. He is a great source of pride for Barbados and the Caribbean.

[@DanceswithHyenas]

Never saw him play but read a lot about him as a young teenager. By the time I turned 18 I had read enough to know that he was the greatest all rounder to have ever played the game. I even branded my bat Sir Gary Sobers when I was 15 to honour the great man. I grew up in Zimbabwe.

[@kishoreda1863]

Excellently done by you Robert. Love the way you interact with legends. Awesome. Learning a lot watching these legends speak.

[@tupapichulo63]

Looking at this great interview brought back memories of Sir Garfield playing at the Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad. Seeing him dispatch Truman for fours and sixes was just sublime for me, a fifth form student. He was impeccable as a batsman, bowler and most of all as a human being. He was so humble.

[@718Philo]

Sir Garfield is deserves a statue in all cricketing countries.

[@henry6252]

What a fantastic player

[@sudhakarg1000]

Sir Gary Sobers is the greatest cricketer ever.

[@mycroft1905]

Privileged to see SGS play at MCG in 1972. Marvelous man. TFP

[@_Longwinded]

Thank You, for uploading this, one of the greatest all-rounders in the history of Cricket. If Sir Don is praising someone trust me, you got to be something unique. I as a 2000 born regard him a lot. he's motivation as well.

[@mahadevanramesh3906]

He has been my favourite cricketer since my age was10 years.

[@vishwanathk9265]

He was a great all rounder

[@ActuallySamD]

An absolute genius.

[@raw5743]

A thoroughly enlightening and entertaining interview from the greatest ever, Sir Garfield Sobers.

[@StephenLoxton]

No one played better. A great man.

[@sreekumarkonnanath7305]

No other words, the greatest ever

[@chrispetritsch1291]

The hardest cricketer i've ever heard,as well as probably the best cricketer ever,of course.

[@manishjoshi9995]

A great cricketer.

[@kishoreda1863]

I was in fact fortunate to meet Gary Sobers the greatest ever allrounder. I don't remember exactly the year. I think it was in 2006....07 in Mumbai. Super human being. Felt we should be like him. Can't be possible for everyone.

[@skswamy3798]

Sir Garfield Sobers is my idol and an iconic figure very attacking player to be so at a time when they had played without any gear as compared to the present time a great guy fun loving and a gentleman cricketer.

[@ArpitPokharna]

What a legend!

[@johnkellman2189]

Got his autobiography signed by Sir Gary himself….. one of my most treasured possessions

[@SamraatMaharjan]

Great storyteller and even great player.

[@regenmeister9646]

He was my coach for three years ... Greatest Cricketer of all time.

[@trapstar885]

The greatest Cricketer ever ! ❤

[@r.cooper9790]

The date when two cricket greats, Gary Sobers and Ian Smith met and sat together in Rhodesia, a country of all races which welcomed him, is a day never to be forgotten.

[@eslermanu47]

The greatest all rounder of all time could bowl 3 different ways fast , medium and slow left arm and as a fielder lighting quick and fantastic batsman and no helmets in his day my hero.

[@dupreemottley7320]

Great at wicketkeeping too....but that would be wasting talent 😂

[@cedricfarquharson5842]

In my opinion the greatest cricketer ever.

[@AngusRobins]

The original play with freedom!

[@rahulbose4323]

Oh he's the greatest

[@StephenStafford-r2y]

what a guy !!!!! thanks Gary

[@adwait73]

His one of the greatest batting was against Australia and Sobers was skipper for Rest of World. Sobers scored 254 in second innings, a match winning performance. Sir Don Bradman said "The best batting ever seen on Australian soil"

[@kenclayton5088]

No1.any era.The player

[@waldog38]

that's a gem.

[@jasonblade3040]

The Cricketers pub will always be linked with Sir Gary.

[@varvitvyomfevouritshits1958]

My favourite cricket player...is rahul dravid... Garry sobers is a great cricketer... A living legend... I salute him... God bless him with happiness and prosperity

[@jermaineshoe401]

We love sir sobers

[@liselisobers1018]

#Respect🎉🎉

[@dupreemottley7320]

The BOSS

[@zibtihaj3213]

Watch the elbow bend at point of delivery of delivery …. Frank Tyson , Larwood both did that from time to time … you can see yourself

[@thalmus7784]

The great Viv Richards so envious of Lara kept him carrying towels for two years how petty.

[@StephenStafford-r2y]

what happened ?

[@vantheman1238]

Never heard that said about Brian Statham before. Statham had hyperextension in his arm. Would argue that Charlie Griffith was the man who threw it!

[@amitjain11000]

World's greatest all rounder ever. Some call him the greatest batsman too. Boycott and Ian Chappel both consider him the greatest batsman.

[@kannanpilla1897]

🙏

[@kishoreda1863]

Sir Sobers sorry for not mentioning

[@hspcinfotube8562]

Greatest Test XI Sunil Gavaskar Jack Hobbs Don Bradman Sachin Tendulkar Kumara Sangakkara(wk) Garfield Sobers(c) Ian Botham Shane Warne Richard Hadlee Malcolm Marshall Dennis Lillie Subs: Brian Lara, Jacques Kallis, Michael Holding, Muralidaran

[@sterlingmanchouck4364]

Yes Lara never played alongside Viv glad to hear Sobers refer to the nonsense he was told of having to wait his turn

[@Billie0708]

The Greatest TEST XI of All Time 1 Jack Hobbs 2 Len Hutton 3 Don Bradman (C.) 4 Sachin Tendulkar 5 Viv Richards 6 Garfield Sobers 7 Alan Knott (W.) 8 Shane Warne 9 Malcolm Marshall 10 Dennis Lillee 11 Sydney Barnes

[@DanceswithHyenas]

It's too difficult to construct an all time great team. Far too many 'great' players have laced them up. I think it would have to be a pre 1980 team and post 1980. Before Sobers was also George Bradley who was an outstanding talent.

[@arshedfazal]

discovered your channel only today and thank you for uploading! incredible videos and immediate +1 sub from me!!!!

[@roshanariyaratnam8225]

Awesome, thank you! Please spread the word - we aren't dependent on subscribers and viewers

[@yogeshbhandari1040]

Arguably the greatest player ever even better than Kallis .

[@simonsadlier6170]

As popular as KFC! $500 per public appearances and loves golf as well.

[@PFrules]

Bradman is the greatest. But Sobers is next. Everyone who says otherwise is delusional.

[@joshuahenry9135]

Good effort, but Lara had to be in there.

[@Learie.]

Of course.

[@Learie.]

Tendulkar, what his he doing there....Laras 9 double centuries at tests level can not be beat ...
