Transcript

00:00Richie Richardson walked out in Port of Spain in April 1993 with that trademark swagger,

00:06and what followed was pure class. He hammered up brilliant 68 runs of just 72 balls,

00:12spending 106 minutes at the crease and decorating his knock with 12 crisp fours and one towering six.

00:20Known for his fearless style, Richie Richardson lived off cuts and full shots,

00:24and in these innings he unleashed them at their very best.

00:28He took on Pakistan's most dangerous attack, Paseem Akram, Vakar Yunus, Mushtaq Muhammad,

00:33and Attaur Rahman, and played them with authority, whether it was pace, swing, or spin.

00:39He treated every challenge with calm aggression.

00:42If you are a fan of Richie Richardson, this knock is a treat.

00:46It's a reminder of how he used to dominate even the most feared bowling pairs in world cricket.

00:51A must-watch inning full of style, timing, and a fearless stroke play.

00:58Another no-ball from Vakar Yunus, and just played away off the angled bat for four.

01:10Oh, that was a fine stroke. It wasn't as short as all that, just pushing it back.

01:23Four runs, he timed it to perfection.

01:25That was a beautiful shot. Pushing it straight back down the pitch.

01:35Not far from Vakar Yunus' right arm, but with the follow-through taking him away from the ball,

01:41he couldn't get back around to feel that.

01:44Twenty-nine runs these two have added so far, Haines and Richardson,

01:50as Mushtaq starts in to Richardson.

01:56There's that paddle sweep so well, that's going for four.

02:01It wasn't a good ball, it was outside Richardson's pads, asking for it.

02:05Big appeal for a bat pad catch. Dickie Bird has none of it, Richardson doesn't think he's out,

02:18and the Pakistanis are very excited.

02:24It's almost impossible from this distance to tell whether Richardson got a bat on it,

02:30but clearly Dickie Bird had doubts, and Richardson didn't react like a man who had hit it.

02:38I'm sure the Westerners captain is happy that Dickie Bird was the person who made that decision.

02:50What a lovely stroke.

02:56What a record.

02:59Oh, Richardson's found the gap, he hit that just about as well as he could have done.

03:12Well, I mean, that's not a short ball or a bounce of that.

03:15This is a medium-paced long hop, isn't it?

03:20Oh, four runs over the top.

03:29Oh, that's a glorious shot. We saw one early on like that from Richardson.

03:40He just threw the bat at it.

03:42Half volley and finding outside the off stump. Second boundary he's had like that.

03:48I've seen Richard Richardson play these shots so often. Not much footwork. The foot

03:54or the feet nowhere near the ball, but half volley is a half volley.

04:05Well, he's hit that very well indeed.

04:07He loves them short, Richard Richardson.

04:13And he really hit that hard. That's his 50 and raising his half century in characteristic fashion.

04:19And it's the 37th time that he's passed 50 in test cricket. This is his 119th test innings.

04:33He's hit that hard. He's hit that hard.

04:38Bang the way for another four. Richardson on the goal.

04:47Well, Raman really paying the price of bowling short to Richard Richardson.

04:50And that's banged away for four. Too short.

05:03Wakayun is starting off with a warm-up delivery.

05:07A medium-paced long hop and Richardson spanking it through the covers.

05:18Magnificent stroke for four more.

05:26Ball will beat Akram to the boundary.

05:28Richardson has now had four boundaries in the last two overs and is on top form.

05:35And that's four more.

05:46So Wakayun is has been greeted with three successive fours and the crowd has gone mad here at the Queen's Spark Oval.

05:54Richardson trying to hit him over the top.

06:01Trying to be over-aggressive and a fantastic catch.

06:04I mean, it had to be on his favorite hand, his best hand.

06:08But he'd have been proud of that anywhere in the world by anybody.
