Step back into the summer of 1979 at Birmingham, where a young Kapil Dev made his mark in international cricket. Facing a dominant England batting line-up, Kapil captured his first ever five-wicket haul in Test cricket — taking all the wickets that fell in England’s massive first innings total.
Though India went down in the match, this was the moment the cricketing world saw the rise of a future legend. His pace, determination, and fighting spirit shone through as he began a journey that would later transform Indian cricket forever.
Relive this rare footage and witness how Kapil Dev announced his arrival on the grand stage — a spell that cricket fans will always cherish.
