Anyone watched this on sky, was enjoyable. remember watching it live particularly remember, hick and Lewis 100’s, gattings drop, kambli looking better than tendulkar, Kieran More on stump mike constantly saying “bowling Raju”

 

[Silly Point]

Aye saw it the other day, enjoyed it. Never knew much about that series, certainly not particularly well known, but was very eye opening. Looked like they had a good time mind

Remember watching series but knew nothing about conditions for players, train journeys and illness etc never mentioned when u think they are just playing poor

It’s absolutely excellent! Especially the bit about the corned beef naans

The poor kids asked for one of the players autograph at the side of the pitch and he shouted ‘No at them. Phil De Freitas was nice enough to give them an autograph.

Nice one. Gonna give that a watch when the mrs and kids have gone out for a bit.

The two sky features / podcasts that go with this are excellent as well. There are low level club teams with better organisation and less chaos. We did well to lose the lot

Agree it was organised chaos, I was scathing of players at time but management and organisation is shambolic when u watch it

The squad selection was diabolical. Gower, Hussain and Russell not selected, Gatting and Emburey playing well past their best and Salisbury who was there as a net bowler ended up playing

Bit unlucky with the airlines being on strike but the squad seemed to enjoy the pints and naans on the train!

Just watched 2 episodes on YouTube. Is there more to come?

canny documentary so far. Class music of the era to accompany it.
How amateurish were the England management? Just looked an utter shambles.

Was Dexter still England manager?

 

[TheRey]

Watching this now, feckin hell

Also finding it even more interesting because it's from the year I was born. But it's very good and amusing so far.

I am stoned, mind

Was Dexter still England manager?

Yes

Sachin looked a right laugh when he was on camera.

Enjoyed it massively.

Noticeable how much Tuffers tones his accent down these days, hearing him during the film

Kumble looked like a law student with those geggs.

Standard ECB (or TCCB) touring squad selection - pick a disjointed and unbalanced squad, then call up additional players to replace the ones you picked because they are shite

Media training darling. He's now "Tuffers the media personality" not Phil from Barnet
