Product Description
It has often been said that you can best judge the quality of a sporting team by the talents of the players left out, and never has this been better illustrated than with ESPN's Legends of Cricket. There has been a vast array of excellent cricketers throughout history, which is of course no more evident than in the modern game. However, this fascinating series aims to pick out the very best of the bunch. A distinguished panel of 15 extremely highly regarded cricketing authorities, including Wasim Akram, Ian Botham, Allan Border and Dickie Bird, will aim to pick out histories very best. Featuring superb, action packed archive footage and in-depth interviews with the selected players, Legends of Cricket is a must have for all cricket enthusiasts. Cricketers featured; Len Hutton, WG Grace, Ian Botham, Wally Hammond, Sir Jacob Hobbs, Alan Border, Steve Waugh, Keith Miller, Dennis Lillee, Sir Donald Bradman, Shane Warne, Frank Worrell, George Headley, Malcolm Marshall, Sir Vivian Richards, Sir Garfield Sobers, Barry Richards, Graeme Pollock, Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Sachin Tendulkar, Wasim Akram and Imran Khan.

I won't engage in prevarication/circumlocution. This is an excellent package; it does exactly what it says on the tin. I feel it's an essential for anyone interested in this fantastic sport.
Its greatest strength lies in the fact of its giving one a broadly-based view of the sport's finest practitioners, irrespective of the narrow confines of country, etc. To be sure, it focuses on the nations that have given cricket its finest hours but, once you have enjoyed the entire package, you realise that this sport transcends all petty national boundary lines. You become a fan of all the greats, whether Bradman and Miller or Hobbs and Hutton or Sobers, Lara, etc!
I recommend it highly.

I bought this as a present for my dad he loved it and I ended up watching most of it as well. A must for cricket fans.
It's like a viciously spun leg break which bowls the skipper round his legs for a golden duck!

Very factual and has nice footage. I recommend to anyone who wants to see true great players doing what they do best. None of this "It's another DLF IPL maximum!" nonsense.
