- Richard Hadlee's inspirational last day spell on a feather bed pitch at the MCG. Take a look at first ball to Dean Jones. Try playing that.
"the corridor of uncertainty" Hadlee mastered that better than anyone. He was my hero growing up. Read 'Hadlee on Cricket' numerous times as a kid. He presented me with a certificate at school when I was 16. Happy days.
In my humble opinion, as painful as it may be as an Aussie, Sir Richard Hadlee was arguably the best fast bowler the world has seen. He was also one of the greatest all rounders.
He was great but Marshall even better.
Absolutely agree. Miles ahead of lillee, Imran , Roberts etc. only Marshall was close to him
Certainly deserves to be in the conversation. His run in and wind up for the delivery was something to behold, so efficient. As youngsters, we all tried to bowl like him..
Was he really that fast with the side arm action?? I mean ever comparable with Marshall or Holding on their prime??
@@kaushikdas4606 Sir, he was a complete fast bowler. He didn't have the lightening speed of Marshall, Waqar and Roberts.
He had guile deceptively quick. He was unplayable many times like against Australia in a test match where he took 9/52 in a test innings
Something about his action his demeanour. It has class written all over it. Fantastic player.
I watched Hadlee bowl Geoff Boycott out for a duck in the 80’s - Nottinghamshire vs Yorkshire. It was magnificent. My Yorkshire uncles (who took me to the match) were not pleased. As a Notts boy Hadlee was my idol. Happy times.
What a bowler, what a bowler, what a bowler, Sir Richard Hadlee is G R E A T....
Best bowling action of all time, absolutely classical.
No,
Maikel Holding.
Greatest Action of all time.
Holding was an ARTIST.
Hadlee was a bowling Computer.
Finest Line Length
And most Accurate.
He was able to eliminate a Chouk Mark on the pitch by his accuracy.
@@rakeshmishra679 Holding was great to watch too. Brett Lee also had a beautiful bowling action.
For me the guy with the best bowling action is Dennis Lillee.
@@oslinthompson8182 Lilee - the HERO and the roll model of great Sir Hadlee
@@oslinthompson8182 Lillee was amazing! Another great bowling action too.
❤Richard Hadlee of NZ 🏏👌 One of the best all rounders in World Cricket
Statistically the best ever, if you look at tests played, average, wickets taken and 5-fers...
Fun fact - Hadlee described to Richie Benaud in an interview that he was a massive Dennis Lillee fan and would often think to himself in a tough situation - "What would Lillee do?"
Most of us are inspired by someone else.
Cricket lovers from all nations often speak of Dennis Lillee's grace and fluidity in delivery; Sir Richard Hadlee's action IMHO is smoother and more graceful.
Absolutely agree! Hadlee is the Rolls Royce of bowlers! Lillee, McGrath and Walsh for me after that.
Right he has amazing bowling record all over the World
17 in Australia
24 in England
22 in india
27 in west indies
16 in Srilanka
Except Pakistan he has amazing bowling record
In Pakistan his avg is 44 butehr cover this with his batting there
His batting avg is 56 in Pakistan
He is so underrated, his bowling record around the globe in different condition is better than other allorunder at that time Imran, kapil, Botham
Even his stats is competitive to marshal, robert, Garner, lille etc.. plus his batting avg also good at down the order
He and shaun Pollock are so under rates
Sir Richard Hadlee was a lone Warrior for the Kiwis in test cricket throughout his career, his bowling action is excellent, used to watch his videos throughCZcams to reconcile his playing days.
This was the greatest biased finish in Test Match History Hadlee bowled the Whole Session unchanged & Danny Morrison got the plumbest LBW in history in the penultimate over & is not given out absolute robbery!Hadlee was exhausted by the end & that was the Start of Australia’s campaign to winning Cricket again they hadn’t won a series for like 3 years this was the first because of Umpiring then they won the 1987 World Cup & 1989 Ashes in England
Yes. I remember it like it was yesterday…
Yep - here is the DRS Review when we won the match (unfortunately not): czcams.com/video/-NtFlb_KOCU/video.html
@@Robbieboy1976I love how you clowns always ignore the close calls that went the OTHER way.
It was plumb
As a kiwi , we robbed the WI in NZ with the worst umpiring imaginable . My dad and pop walked out they were that disgusted in the terrible , no actually woeful series victory against the mighty WI . To this day I still cant believe it happened .
As Bill Lawry said "what a bowler"
Just the opposite of Steve Bucknor.. What a ' Howler'
"It's all happening here at the MCG" - classic!
This video is first time i watched. Sir Richard Hadlee took 5 wickets. This match was played in 1987. But i was born in 1995. I saw the NZ crowd. They were in very happy moment. During my school times i don't like Australia in Cricket. New Zealand is one of my favourite Cricket team. I really enjoyed this video.
My favourite international cricket teams:
1. England 🇬🇧
2. New Zealand 🇳🇿
3. India 🇮🇳
Rhythm and Swing. Thank you Sir Richard.
That last wicket. Outswinging off cutter. Brilliant
Is it just me or are the bowlers of that era a lot better than today
As a Kiwi born in the early 80s, it is of no surprise to anyone that Sir Richard Hadlee is my absolute sporting hero!
One of the best bowlers of all time I remember how a varied the new zealand cricket team watch a great boller
He was brilliant bowler.
The last time a kiwi bowler was awarded an lbw in Australia.
Great alrounder
The greatest NZ has produced
And Turner?
A great all rounder I like is bowling action
Legend
majestic
An exciting series. Adelaide was a qn avalanche of runs. Brisbane was a comprehensive win. Melbourne was edge of your seat stuff. NZ were unlucky not to get the umpire calls at the death, but it was Australia's first series win since Pakistan in 83/84.
What a bowler
Richard Hadlee was the Roger Federer of Cricket.
Great bowler.
Hadlee was so good, he could have played for Australia.
As a kid sitting on the Hill at the SCGin the 80s Year after Year Hearing Hadlees a Wanker over and over.So Shitty that he wasn't an Aussie and the Best Cricketer going around,What a Player the BEST.
That era: four best allrounders were playing: IAN BOTHAM, RICHARD HADLEY, KAPIL DEV, IMRAN KHAN.
Great hadlee
Great bolwer
Sir Richard is the GOAT.
He was the best bowler during his time, not Roberts, Lillee, Thompson, Kapil Dev, Imran Khan, or Ian Botham.
Abey tum log ka koi imaan nahi hota kya?
Jiski bhi video daal di, wahi best ho jata hai.🤷
Agree. Thanks for calling out as you see it regardless of which nationality you represent.
Hadlee played mainly in Australia & New Zealand with few overseas tours where as Roberts bowled in all test playing countries during his era & bowled on all types of wicket. Besides, he had to face intensified competition from his legendary team lmates like Holding, Garner, Marshall etc. Hadlee was the main strike bowler mildly supported by Chatfield, Lans Cairns etc. As a result he had a better opportunity to take wicket compared to Roberts. Therefore, Roberts was better than him in terms of bowling on all types of pitch. Hadlee bowled on pitches only famous for bounce & swing but Roberts bowled successfully on fast, slow, spinning all types of track. This proves his superiority.
Where is the need for comparison. Different eras and different greats. Recently Burmrah 's record is also impressive. But why compare?
@@SV-wu2my It's not comparison but disclosure of facts. Problem is everyone doesn't have the IQ to understand it.
Still nzs best ever
❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful bowling action, wasim had a beautiful action, but he couldn't control the swing at times and would overstep a lot.
If only we had a Time Machine, Hadlee + Bond vs Lillee and Lee!!! M.D.Crowe & Andrew Jones vs Geoff Marsh and Alan Border!!!
The ball actually went off the top edge of Dyer's bat before it hit his chest.
Amazing cricketer, but he stated that out of the 4 all rounders, Kapil , Hadlee, imran and Botham, Hadlee rated imran as the best as a bowler and allrounder
नाईस
was this the match saved by Michael Whitney? great bowler Hadlee, proper quality.
Class Kiwi act
Great bowler.. No doubt about it..I am curious to know how many tests he has played in India and what are his statistics?
Bowling in India, Hadlee’s average was better than bowling at home. 22.22- 6 matches bowled in 10 innings. Took 31 wickets. Best bowling of 6/49 and 10/88 in a match.
Shame is that NZ did not tour India frequently in those days.
In the entire subcontinent (India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka), he has taken 68 wickets in 13 tests at an average of 21.5.
One of the greatest if not the best.
Except Pakistan he had amazing bowling record all around the globe
In Pakistan his avg is 44 , when he played in. Their early days 1976
His record is not good in Pakistan but he cover it with this batting there , his batting avg is 56 in Pakistan
who won the match?
Yu miss malcom the best ever
We was screwed bt Aussie umpires. Morrison had IBW plumb
"Bracewell, on the field for his catching obviously, not for his bowling at this stage". :)
Don't tell that to his frequent bunny Allan Border.
Ian Smith has found a lush paddock since his playing days
Grass up to his balls.
❤❤❤ Richard hadlee ❤❤❤
Records says dat he was better then Lillie ; he was right at par with Malcolm Marshall
I mean records say marshal was better
@@liam3104 marshall had better average but hadlee more 5wi.
Akram had more tricks but both are FANTASTIC!
Did we win?
So what happened? 😳
It surprises me to see how identical is Nasim Shah's action to Hadlee!
Not really. Check again.
@@vir7070they are similar for sure but I think Naseem is more like lillee. All 3 have fantastic actions at the very least. Don’t write naseem off. I’m Aussie and I think once he develops he could be very good
Not sure who had better form Richard or Bill lawry
Such a beautiful action. He's the Roger Federer of fast bowling. The only action that comes close is Donald
I would rate him above Lille for the simple reason that he took lots of wickets in the sub continent
New Zealand was screwed. Fooked Australia umpires
No doubt,Hadlee was great bowler but the decision taken by umpires on that time for lbw were under doubt..since there were no system to recheck hence many innocent batsmen those were not out were given out...
Similarly system of run out at that time was depend on the mercy of umpires..
If anything umpires tended to err on the side of caution, giving stuff not out when these days it would be shown to be out. Makes Hadlee’s record, and that of other bowlers of that era, even more impressive.
Meh. Decisions go both ways
Aussie umpires tended to favour the Aussie unless plumb middle stump, but these were still out but more hitting leg stump which is unusual in the fact it was against Aussie batters. But the commentators agreed they were out😊 so not sure on what basis you say they weren't out
Dyer whinging about his dismissal after cheating to dismiss Jones earlier
So what did they think when Michael Holding kicked the stumps down? What did they think when Colin Croft shouldered barged umpire Fred Goodall in the worst display ever witnessed in a test match he should of been banned for years disgusting
Well that was a bit of a shite place to end it. Like, wtf won??
And Dean Jones said Hadlee is just another bowler. Big mistake. Cheating Australian umpires in those days.
What the f$$$.... who won the test??
It ended in a draw. Danny Morrison had a plumb LBW turned down in second to last over with Aussie 9 down.
PADDLE FOOT
Great sportsman right there . BUT i never worked out why ya had to call him SIR just because he was good at throwing a ball at 3 sticks .😮
Robbed by roo rooter umpires
Hadlee and Lillee were greats only in Australia and England, otherwise they were below average. When Hadlee saw destruction of his hero Lillee in Pakistan, he started skipping tours to Pakistan. hehe
In 1988 tour to india hadlee was almost unplayable on indian wickets which hardly gave any assistance to fast bowlers.
@@riyazahmed208 All fast bowlers who bowled well in India hav poor records in Pakistan, except Marshall, Walsh and McGrath. Hadlee, Lillee, Donald cudnt do anything in Pakistan lol
What ? W
@@aarifboy Richard hadlee was superb everywhere in the world on every pitch even Pakistani batsmen found it difficult to play him except javed miandad . He could get any batsman out on his day on any wicket . I rate him better than marshall and donald and walsh. Also , in 1988indian batting lineup had only two world class batsmen vengsarkar and azharuddin. There was no tendulkar no gavaskar . Srikkanth could not play hadlee well.India won the series 2-1 in one match vegsarkar topscored with 101 and india won. In one low scoring test at hyderabad azhariddin top scored with 82 and india won. One test was won by newzealand where hadlee was man of the match. Overall best bowler of series was hadlee but series was won by India under dilip vengsarkars captaincy. Even in odis hadlee was best bowler but india won the series. This is the series where in one odi hadlee was injured. Azharuddin made use of this opportunity and coming at number 6 scored worlds fastest odi century and india won in baroda. Vengsarkar was retained as captain after this tour but Richard Hadlee achieved greatness for being the most difficult fast bowler to face on indian wickets.
Utter nonsense.
dyer you liar
Dyer the liar
Good bowling, but nothing extra ordinary (compared to someone like Anderson). I guess that's enough with the Kookaburra ball.
That’s because the highlights give no idea of how extraordinarily consistent he was. His greatness was down to giving the batsmen absolutely no respite. You’d get the same impression with McGrath. I love Anderson, but I’d put him below Hadlee.
Someone like Anderson u r kidding he played 17 years but only played like 85 Tests 431 wickets bro how many tests did Anderson play twice as many if not more plus & most of all how many Wickets away from home did Mr Anderson get Hadlee got plenty bro in 3 Tests in Australia not at home he 35 wickets at like an average of 15
Do some research please.
just imagine how many wickets Hadlee would have had if he had played 200 tests.......
Damn who won in the end? That was cruel to end it there
Draw, mike Whitney the number 11 survived an over from hadlee to draw the test
How smooth was his action?
Peter Sleep walked on an lbw. Today in the ‘spirt if the game’ batsmen edge the ball and don’t walk, or they walk out of their crease get stumped and don’t walk. Have to say it’s a game of thugs now not gentlemen.
