In this week’s edition of In Search of West Indies Cricket, Roger Seymour concludes his examination of Sir Vivian Richards,
the dragon.
Fourth Test Match, Sabina Park, Jamaica, April, 21 to 25
Michael Holding, in his first Test in front of his home crowd, was lethal on a fast Sabina pitch, taking seven wickets and hitting an aggressive 55, in posting 107, for the seventh wicket with Murray (71). India’s memories of the match are rather unpleasant; first innings: 306 for 6 declared, two batsmen retired hurt; second innings, 97 for 5 declared, five batsmen absent, injured. All 17 members of the Indian touring party fielded at some stage of the match. WI: 391 and 13 without loss. WI
