Once reporters asked Clive Lloyd don't you have any spin bowler in your touring side. He replied Joel Garner is our spin bowler, as he was the slowest among the fearsome pace quartet. By no means he was slow.😨
Greg Chapell is an August born Leo ♌ . August born Leos ♌ are all Psychos. Greg Chapell is a bloody Psychopath. Joel Garner is a December born sagittarius ♐ . December born Sagittarius ♐ are Emperors.
The West Indies were relentless in that era. There were no weak links. No let up; no respite. Andy Roberts… Joel Garner… Michael Holding… Colin Croft… Malcolm Marshall… Sylvester Clarke was a fearsome quality fast bowler who only managed to play 11 tests because those others were so good. From the first over until stumps, it was 90mph… short of a length… up into the rib cage and throat… with 3 slip fielders, 2 gullies and no restrictions on short pitched deliveries and no fines for slow over rates. They were unbeatable.
Who is Joel Garner? Some third class garbage thrash fast bowler. Pragyan Ojha is billion times better than Joel Garner. Watch this video. Pragyan Ojha is a better bowler than Michael Holding, Joel Garner, Malcolm Marshall,Colin Croft and Andy Roberts. Pragyan Ojha is billion times better than Joel Garner. Pragyan Ojha is fastest to take 100 test wickets in his 22nd test match. Who is Joel Garner? Some third class garbage thrash fast bowler! Watch this video of Pragyan Ojha destroying west indies. https://youtu.be/bBIz8abq5Gs
Joel Garner and Curtly Ambros were almost 'death' to batsman. West Indies pace batteries proved to be fatal to these wonderful batsmen…No mercy… Greg Chappell was great batsman of his time but even he was bowled as club cricketer by this Giant Joel Garner…
Joel Garner is my favourite. The variable bounce he produced is a treat. Many batsman were found confused with the height the ball will come. Marvelous bowler
Imagine , Greg chappel being the most technically sound and the best batsman of that Aus era, getting such pounding, what would be the other ones sitting in the pavilion going through?? Once Garner done his over, Roberts and Holding and Croft were waiting. In fact Garner was the nicest one of that lot, how scary is that !!!!!
How did anyone score on Garner! The guy was so consistent with his line and length, the ball would rear up at the batsman without even being pitched that short and if he did dig it in and upped his pace to the 90 mark you'd be taking your life in your hands trying to score off that. He'd make a great batsman like Chappell struggle to survive, imagine being a number 10 or 11 coming in to face him-sheesh!
Everyone talking about great fast bowlers yes that's fine what about the great batsmen who faced these lethal attacks those days with very basic protection unlike roman-soldier-like batters at present…worlds apart
Chappell immediately gets off the mark. That's how it's done in benefit/testimonial matches. Not much charity from "Big Bird" afterwards!. Regards from Rockhampton, Queensland 👍
Leave alone Sunil gavaskar the gr eat Indian opening batsman who faced the west Indies fearsome fa st bowlers all his career with effort less ease.He is special.To point ou t another something more special batsman Sachin TENDULKAR faci ng the same battery of super fast bowlers at blistering pace how ca n he counter.My opinion,he would have gained more reputation nam e fame beating all time greats.Su ch are his level of skills confidenc e and talent.He would have been an object lesson to everybody.Tha t is his ever powering greatness.Gift of GOD.
When player like Greg Chappell could not play Garner mean big thing. I have seen Gavaskar and Zaved Miadad played Garner better than any player in the world.
As an Indian Cricket fan, since 1970s, never seen such a good set of Fast bowlers like Andy Roberts, Michel Holding, Joel Garner, and Malcom Marshall. if such caliber of fast bowlers are in one Team, even now, the team can win across the globe, in all the formats of cricket. True Chsmpion Fast bowlers, especially, the Jamican Express, Michael Holding. what a champion bowler he was. smooth running and his bowling action was unmatchable. i am grate fan of him
Sir Andy Roberts, Michael holding, Collin Croft and Joel Garner. The undisputed four horsemen. Never in the history in the game of cricket there was an attack like the four horseman
Vintage test cricket. Superb balling. Great shot and then the fall. This is what Test cricket was all about in those days. Today is the day of pajama cricket.

Why's he rubbing his chest?! When Aussies were doing this with us, we didn't cry about it.
Great bowling extremely beautiful spell of quality fast bowling.
I literally wanted garner to smash that chappel on his jaws. Destroyed careers of Indian cricketers.
Real Test Cricket!

Just like when we played, no arm guards, no chest protectors, no grills, no thigh pads – man's game!
Garner averaged under 21 runs per wicket. Better than Holding, Roberts, Lillee, Thomson. Even better than McGrath.
Should have danced down the pitch and smeared big bird straight back over his head

Fearsome Pace & Bounce by big Joel Garner roughed the tough guy Gregg Chappell. Fast bowling at its best.
Joel Garner is my favourite.
The variable bounce he produced is a treat. Many batsman were found confused with the height the ball will come. Marvelous bowler
Umpire's fault for not giving Lbw decision.
Big Bird caught our imagination as kids. Formidable bowler, we watched in awe, and fear for the batsman.
Crazy how good that whole team was – Black Death! An amazing cricketing side.
Crowd jeering Joel Garner was obviously didn't help Greg Chappel 🤣🤣🤣
Are You Uploading First Test Australia Vs West Indies 1979/80 ???
Joel was greatest ODI bowler. Hardest bowler in history to hit. Impossible to score against.
The Big Bird has the last laugh!
They should have Chapel and Garner talk about it now with video playing!

Is that the great Yorkshireman FS Trueman commentating?
Post 2000's batting records don't count for much for this very reason
Kim Hughes the legend on the other end having a chuckle.😎👍🏽
Night mare Bowlers of Windis…
Greg Chappel was a master against that battery of vicious WI attack and that on difficult pitches which were not well prepared.
Big bird making the ball bounce like a tennis ball😅
When you have umpire with you it happen

The guy was so consistent with his line and length, the ball would rear up at the batsman without even being pitched that short and if he did dig it in and upped his pace to the 90 mark you'd be taking your life in your hands trying to score off that.

Umpire was right not to give that. Definitely too high and the replays confirm. GC was rattled and wasn't his day. Garner was a beast!
His action didn't feel fast with his run-up but the way it hit the batsman it had pace.
Everyone talking about great fast bowlers yes that's fine what about the great batsmen who faced these lethal attacks those days with very basic protection unlike roman-soldier-like batters at present…worlds apart
australian umpires were giving bowlers like thomson and lilliee an extra yard to bowl

Always a pleasure to see either Chappell brothers sorted out.

Absolutely love Joel!!
Loved watching Big Bird bowl.
I met Joel Garner in Barbados a lovely friendly guy as long as you weren't a batman 😂
