I love the 'Guide to the <insert a cricket stroke here>' I think it's a good idea to help kids to improve on certain strokes and who better to show them then the best?

Excuse me not supplying links, but someone directed me to a really funny clip from the 1st test in the 1948 ashes the other day. It involved (I think) Barnes grabbing a stump and running off the pitch as far as the pavilion when he thought the game was over. In fact it wasn't, and he had to bring it back before the winning runs could be scored. At that point, the English fielders grabbed all 3 stumps before Barnes could grap any of them, and the final shot shows Barnes slinging his bat to the ground in frustration. Well worth a look if you can find it.


EDIT

Here it is.
