Michael Holding says he bowled plenty of faster and better overs in his career, but the six balls that assailed and finally dismissed Geoffrey Boycott in Barbados 36 years ago today do take some beating

The 1976 first ball yorking of Tony Greig at Old Trafford (in his 8-fer inning, 14-fer match) was the best.

According to Boycott's account of the over, when his stumps went flying many west Indian fans lost track of where they were and fell out of trees. Lol

As the over progressed you could feel a crescendo of excitement as each delivery whizzzed past de bast unbothered. When de de stumps shattered on the last ball de place exploded...de whole place was totally tuned into the moment
