Vintage Viv! Viv Richards smashing the Windies to victory in the 3rd ODI Final vs Aust SCG 1988/89

Greatest cricket player of all time Sir Viv Richards....

batsman? maybe. cricketer? nah

[@ultralegendarybeast101]

Gavaskar is better!

[@swapnilbose8465]

Nope, Jacques Kallis is greatest cricketer. Viv Richards is greatest batsman but he can't bowl like Kallis

[@ultralegendarybeast101]

@@swapnilbose8465 No opposing team is comfortable as long as Gavaskar is still at the crease

[@swapnilbose8465]

@@ultralegendarybeast101 Gavaskar is also batsman only. He's not a good bowler or fielder. See the stats. There's no other cricketer who can match at per with Jacques Kallis in batting, bowling & fielding.

[@deepaksharma4579]

The best ever. The way he dominated the bowling masters of all times is simply magnificent. No one comes even close to Viv Richards- The real king of Cricket.

Viv was 25 yrs ahead of the time.

[@keep_it_tidy56]

Sir Viv was a force of nature, used to love watching him stride to the wicket, chewing gum with no helmet in sight. Not a lot of foot movement at times, but that in/out shot was a joy to behold.

Absolutely, With today's bats, short boundaries and less threatening bowlers he would have won every T20i.

Since 1970s, world's best batsmen to me are Richards and gavaskar. World's greatest fast bowlers are McGrath, Akram and waqar. Greatest spinners are Warne and Murali. Greatest all-rounder is Kapil dev. And the greatest wicket keeper batsman is Gilchrist

Waqar was not as great as you make him. Ambrose was better. Imran khan was a better all rounder than kapil.

"Smashing Windies to victory" is a bit of an overstatement. The rain handed the game to them on a plate. No DRS back then. A touch chase was made simple.

[@storm4743]

Don't agree with your statement there Viv Richards was on fire that night he would have scored 150 + of his own. it was just a pity the rain came because we did not see Viv at his Best and boy oh boy Viv at his best is very dollar worth spend watching him bat just ask Allan Border he will tell you how good Viv Richards was.
