Legend, inspirational, bigger than life – only a few of the words used to characterize Sir Ian Botham.
Botham ripped 383 wickets and believed 5,200 runs in 102 Tests but his own character and swagger proved equally inspirational, epitomised at Headingley at the 1981 Ashes.
That series spawned a generation of cricketers who desired to be like’Beefy’, such as Dominic Cork, therefore we delivered him to track down more former cricketers who attempted to measure into the sneakers of Botham and requested them.
Click on the video over to see donations from Chris Lewis, Derek Pringle, Phillip DeFreitas, Craig White and the man-of-the-summer Ben Stokes of England, who produced a Headingley wonder of his very own!
Topics discussed at the video contain….
– How players managed the transition from watching Botham as their hero to getting his team-mate – as well as his room-mate!
– The problems of dealing with being compared to Beefy about the pitch and being judged by his own criteria
– Why we are unlikely to see the following all-rounder in the mould of Botham, and also Stokes contrasts with ball and bat
