| Video Discription | 40 glorious years of Channel 9. Takes a look back at the beginning of the revolution which led the way to modern day cricket. The media mogul Kerry Packer who had an astute vision and set about meticulously to achieve that. Along with Richie Benaud, Tony Grieg and 50 other world's best cricketers. There was a time when cricket used to be dull over long spans, exciting in patches and the game used to progress at an easy pace…………till World Series Cricket happened.Cricket was never the same again, it got a new life. “BIG BOYS PLAY AT NIGHT”, read one of the T-shirts in the crowd that had come in to soak in the sun on grass banks outside of the ground with a box of beer at one of the World series Games. It had a Dennis Lilee pic in the backdrop and was selling like hot cakes. There was a song dedicated to the Aussie tem which goes something like….” C’mon Aussie C’mon” …..It was getting to be a POP culture and it is by far the best thing to have happened to cricket after the invention of the game and perhaps the legends who flocked it. Rebel would be the first word that is associated with the cricketing circus that rocked the very foundations of the cricketing world from 1977 till the spring of 1979. What it brought with it was a cultural shift and a definite change in the mindset to approach the game. Intensity and Professionalism. Two words that sum up the league perfectly. Ferocious battles, racing helmets, coloured clothing, cricket under lights, flamboyance and some more garnishing….. made it one hell of a spectacle. Those were indeed the days of glory and not shame. Tony Greig needs a special mention, not because of his cricketing prowess, but for his work behind the scenes to facilitate the pool of world class players. |
