Serious pace by Brett Lee. Brett Lee vs Alex Tudor, Brendon McCullum, Shivnarine Chanderpaul and last but not the least, the CNN chat show host Piers Morgan!
With the added hindsight of the death of Phil Hughes, I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest that Chanderpaul is a very, very lucky man. That one looked BAD.
@@garethwest9069 Not true, Gavaskar batted for a large part of his Test career without a helmet, even after getting hit in the head by Malcolm Marshall. In later years he wore a skull cap. But it was certainly no helmet.
I watched Brett Lee bowl to NZ at Auckland . He was so bloody fast the keeper was throwing the ball back to him before the batter had played a shot. He was awesome to watch along with all the other great Aussie quicks, and I’m a kiwi.
Brett Lee was pure class as a fast bowler Watched him in Adelaide early in his career in the January one dayers Happy to go along with the crowd and sign autographs but extremely humble Good onya Bing
I always felt Brett was a particularly fierce bowler. Not only was he super quick, but he possessed an highly accurate bouncer. He was like the UFC champion bowler of World Cricket. 👊🏻
Brett lee was lethal... He possess very serious pace... One of the stylish bowlers of all time... If I like anyone's bowling action it has to be brett lee and dale steyn... I don't find any other bowlers action that attractive... This two bowlers are my all time favourite... But when it comes to line and length it is very hard to go past Glenn McGrath... As a batsman if you don't have proper technique he will trouble you 99 times out of hundred😂😂😂... Though Brett lee was lethal he was one of the funny and friendly person... The best part is that he is the first person to attend the batsman❤❤❤
Im fortunate to have watched Lee Play well over a dozen times live at the MCG. Always dominant in the one day format, became a bit of a tail end specialist in tests.
From a spectators point of view its a shame we dont have these guys anymore, Allan Donald, Dale Steyn, Shane Bond, Brett Lee , Shoab Aktar, I watched Devon Malcolm playing at the Gabba and he was genuinely fast, and I saw a young Mohammed Zahid at the Gabba against Qld, I stood behind the nets and watched him bowl, he was express but never went on for Pakistan, someone told me he ended up playing County cricket in England
theres an interview where shaun tain talks about how modern day cricket is a lot more regimented, bowl this amount of balls, take rests, don't focus on pace, keep technique in line ect. When the older generation was going through the system they were probably more left to their own devices, which resulted in more unique bowling actions and mentalities on pace. Lots of great face bowlers have their careers cut short due to inury, brett lee was reknowned for training like an olmpyic athlete. Australia has had plenty of fast bowlers careers finished premateutely due to injury such as james pattison.
I've seen footage of the bouncer that killed Phillip Hughes and it wasn't much different to the ball that got Chanderpaul. Some of these hits really get me in the feels 😰
That was just terrible luck, plenty of blokes have been hit around that same spot and not died. You also have to feel for Sean Abbott, I doubt a day goes by that he doesn''t think about it. Abbott was no where near Lee's pace. Lee probably lucky no one died from any of those balls when you think about Phil Hughes.
Chanderpaul's hit him on the back of the helmet on the base. So the helmet thankfully gave some protection. He was still out cold. Phil Hughes tragically hit on the neck, so no protection. Chanderpaul was lucky here. Could have been much worse...
@@iankearns774says a lot abt the accuracy of the guys like Lee and Akhtar They merely put ppl in hospital while they could easily have killed many with the pace they had
The kids from 80s and 90s probably saw the best cricket there was ever to be played hands down. Fastest bowlers, trickiest spinners and greatest batsmen - hard yards.
Jeff Thomson had the Poms crapping in their pants but there wasn't head protection back then and you learned how to get inside the line of the ball and play the bouncer them. Helmets have blind spots, I could never wear one.
Ofc. He was always trying for the fastest ball so he was always aware of the dangers. And he didn't want to hurt anyone. So he was always ready to help the batsman in case
My thoughts are that helmets have allowed batters to become lazy. Without the helm you learnt to use that other piece of equipment, the bat, to avoid being hit. *OR* you got out of the bludy way of the ball... No ducking (because that takes your eyes OFF the ball) but swaying, even stepping back out of the way. If it's following you, sit down, quickly, but still the bat is near your face to prevent the ball hitting you if at all possible.
I have scored many a centuries in my dreams, sixes and all... but Brett Lee bending the knee and placing his arm over my shoulder.... dream smashed! Sweat on brow... I wakie wakie.
@@robchisholm2697 Most of these balls were armpit height at best and the batsmen ducked into them. The bowler is well within their right to bowl uncomfortable lengths. It's international cricket not local cricket on a Saturday 🤣
@robchisholm2697 bowler bowls a deadly bouncer and all of a sudden they r the villain? It's his job to get batsman out in any way he can legally. Stop thinking with emotion and start thinking with logic dumbass
This was during the Ashes series where Mitchell Johnson absolutely terrorised the English batters, Piers "The Idiot" Morgan accused the English team of being "Mentally Weak" for being intimidated by Mitchell Johnson 's pace. Brett Lee took this as an insult to Fast Bowling, so challenged Piers to face an over from him in the nets during the luncheon interval at one of the tests.
Brett Lee, if he ever hit a batsman was always first on the scene to see if he was okay and to assist him. Unlike some English bowlers recently that have hit batsmen and just laugh and turn around.
Most of those were ducking and ducking without their hands or bat around. Most misjudged the height of the bouncers. Anywhcih ways it's good that there were no serious injuries.
Players that grown up wearing helmets certainly have worse techniques for short pitched balls at your body compared to batsmen prior to helmets becoming the norm.
But the Aussie bowlers at the time made a habit of bowling from over the line in their practices. I remember one time, here in Adelaide, David Shepard was scheduled to be the "Neutral" umpire and thought he'd like to try a net session to get used to the slightly different light. He left, complaining that the bowlers (all of them) weren't even trying to bowl from the line. "What's the BL**DY point" was the mildest of his comments.
Forgot how much pain Lee inflicted. During the 2003 WC in SA i saw Symonds, Lee and Bichel at my local nightclub. Brett Lee was tiny but ripped, and hell did he rip into some of the SA girls that night. Symonds was quite the naughty boy too. I wonder how soft Cricket Stralia would slap the players on the wrist had they known....🙄
Great Sachin , Ganguly,dravied ,laxman face these attack by Lee,Akram,shoaiab,megra,gillespy, now a days there are not fast boller quality like this ,field easy to make run for new generation like Kohli,Rohit and others
Bibabidibabu India cricket bibibidadu ba bubabu overrated di Bada bubu keep quiet about it baba budu India ruins cricket bibudibebabadabu Pakistan play better cricket kkkkk
Jofra archer is 155kph in his prime and definitely an intimidating prospect to batters of all eras when in his best form just ask steven smith who averages nearly 60 over 100 odd tests thats superior to anybody even the likes of tendulkar jofra archer worked smith over like a number 11 so don't let nostalgia cloud reality archer is as fast and hostile as anything the game as seen in the last 20-25 years injuries and the way england have handled him as held his progression back
Ponting, Gilchrist, Hayden, Langer, Taylor, Boon... (going back a few more years) Lawry, Stackpole, Chappell i, Chappell g, Hookes, Border, Waugh m, Waugh s. As a matter of fact most of the Australian First Class Cricketers (specialist batters) from the time of Bob Simpson through to the end of Lee's career would have faced some bowler of about the same sort of pace in Sheffield Shield matches. Lindwall, Miller, Freeman, Sincock, Lillee, Thompson, Hogg, Lawson, Gillespie, Tait, Lee plus there were some very quick bowlers for both South Australia & West Australia that never were selected for Australia because they didn't play on the east coast [Lillee being the exception]
He’s an extremely passionate fiery person, which I respect alot more than people who don’t have passion for the game. I’m sure him and Lee would have joked about it sometime after. It’s kinda funny your name is bas though you gotta admit 😂
I don't think Brian Close would be impressed with most of the batsmen as they could have swayed out of the way instead of ducking into the line. A split decision I know, but could've avoided a lot of pain. P.S could have kept their eyes on the ball as well!!!
@@danielmartinbowen3844 Yes, it's no coincidence that in every clip where they get hit, it's while their eye is off the ball. But, it's easy for us to say, we're not having it come at us at over 90 mph. They should study Robin Smith, he was always great at playing the quicks and would always make sure he was limber and ready to get out of the way if he had to.
@@jshaers96 I agree. Also, years ago, I was watching a test match. I can't remember who England were playing, but the camera was sweeping the crowd and there were a couple of boys playing. One of them bowled the other a bouncer and the other swayed out of the way whilst keeping his eyes on the ball all the way. I thought that a lot of professional cricketers could do with watching the clip as it would show them what to do. I know the ball wasn't a cricket ball, but my point stands.
So did many other batsman in Gavaskar's era and before. So many professional indians out there who think it was only Gavaskar who never wore a helmet 🤣😂🤣 Besides, Gavaskar's 1st series against the West indies was 70/71 five years before Roberts and Holding. Then he played against the West Indies during WSC when Roberts, Holding, Garner and Croft weren't available for official test matches . So he missed playing against all of them during the WSC years. And unlike Viv Richards, Gavaskar *DID* indeed wear a protective helmet of sorts. And Richards played against all the West Indian quick bowlers in inter island games and played against all other fast bowlers from other nations. Maybe you've heard of Dennis Lillee, Jeff Thomson, Richard Hadlee and Bob Willis...to name but a few.
Try it when the gloves are rudimentary at best as are the pads on your legs. *AND* then the opposition is DELIBERATELY targeting your body and setting fields so that if you use the bat, you'll hit the ball into the hands of one of the four fielders waiting there. It earnt the name BODYLINE... It was developed to counter *ONE* batsman... And it worked, for that series he only averaged 56.57 when we all know Bradman averaged 99.94 in his entire career. Sunil G. had a very respectable career average of 51.17 but didn't inspire any opponent to develop a tactic specifically for him.
Really the umpires ought to have some basic first aid training. Seeing Chanderpaul lying flat on his bat like that, my first thought was that someone should put him in the recovery position or he might swallow his tongue.
Ducking is a fast and relatively safe (in terms of not getting out) manoeuvre against short pitched deliveries. It gets your bat out of the way and should ideally pass over your head to the keeper. Compare that with trying to move laterally out of the way, or getting the face of the bat high enough to play the ball safely into the ground. But with extreme pace such as with Lee it gets harder to correctly judge the length of the delivery and how high it is likely to bounce with sufficient time to react correctly. Lee, like the WI bowlers of old was also good at bowling rib ticklers, just short enough to rise up into the ribcage area where you are almost forcing the batsman to use the bat, but if you aren't a good batsman you might try and duck anyway.
Lee isn't especially tall, and the style of ball he often bowls will skid through rather than bouncing as high as the batter might predict. The technique of ducking under the ball which works fine for taller bowlers who get the ball to bounce more doesn't work as well. Mark Wood from England is similar, although he doesn't seem to hit batter as often, maybe he's easier to predict than Lee was.
That was the golden era of Cricket. We don't have players from any side who can perform at the same level.
I think that today's batsman are Lucky
Man he absolutely broke Piers Morgan down brutally and didn't forget to hit the stumps too
With the added hindsight of the death of Phil Hughes, I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest that Chanderpaul is a very, very lucky man. That one looked BAD.
Outside the cricket Bret Lee is such a fun loving,friendly and humble guy but when he holds the cricket bowl seems to be holding a dynamit 🔥🔥🔥

Chanderpaul is lucky to be alive
It wasnt really a bouncer as well. He ducked right into it which was only going over the stumps by about 18". You're right, it could have killed him.
Yeah, remember Hughes 😢
Yes very similar area where Hughes was hit.
Im fortunate to have watched Lee Play well over a dozen times live at the MCG. Always dominant in the one day format, became a bit of a tail end specialist in tests.
Bullet bowling, fiery pace...but a kind hearted person as well.
Imagining Sunil Gavaskar facing bowlers like Joel Garner without helmet , you got to have an eye like an eagle for that ..
No disrespect to Garner but I'm sure lee was a lot quicker
Big bird bowled 125-130 kph his height and bounce along with accuracy is what made him lethal.

Michael Holding was fast but Shaun Tait holds aussie record 4 fastest ball..a
Shoad Aktar doesn't rate he was done for using performance enhancers and he wasnt consistent
There are players who swear Lee bowled well past 160kph at the WACA back in the day.
Shame there was no speed camera.

Only Australian 🇦🇺 bowler who has more fans in India than any Indian 🇮🇳 bowler

Really the umpires ought to have some basic first aid training. Seeing Chanderpaul lying flat on his bat like that, my first thought was that someone should put him in the recovery position or he might swallow his tongue.
Is there a particular reason so many players duck into Lee, it happens with many fast bowlers but seemingly more often with Lee
Ducking is a fast and relatively safe (in terms of not getting out) manoeuvre against short pitched deliveries. It gets your bat out of the way and should ideally pass over your head to the keeper. Compare that with trying to move laterally out of the way, or getting the face of the bat high enough to play the ball safely into the ground. But with extreme pace such as with Lee it gets harder to correctly judge the length of the delivery and how high it is likely to bounce with sufficient time to react correctly. Lee, like the WI bowlers of old was also good at bowling rib ticklers, just short enough to rise up into the ribcage area where you are almost forcing the batsman to use the bat, but if you aren't a good batsman you might try and duck anyway.
Lee isn't especially tall, and the style of ball he often bowls will skid through rather than bouncing as high as the batter might predict. The technique of ducking under the ball which works fine for taller bowlers who get the ball to bounce more doesn't work as well. Mark Wood from England is similar, although he doesn't seem to hit batter as often, maybe he's easier to predict than Lee was.
Consistently bowling 145+ , no one done it before for a long time
Ending was😂
