Cricket on YOU TUBE / Anyone tape cricket off tv?

Spent a few hours digging this up today, lots of very old video tapes that mostly play ok, but this wasnt so great, but some RARE footage indeed, you wont see this anywhere else in a hurry. I didnt do any editing, I just uploaded the full Aussie 2nd innings, whatever I had. Its a bit dicey but its pretty old, VCR's werent all that great back then!

YouTube - Sarfraz Nawaz 9/86 vs Australia 1st test 1978/79 MCG PART ONE

YouTube - Sarfraz Nawaz 9/86 vs Australia 1st test 1978/79 MCG PART TWO

CLASSICCC!!. Reverse-swing started right here.
 
YouTube - Malcolm Marshall PART ONE 1988/89 vs Australia 1st test GABBA

Will take a day or so to get all 6 parts uploaded. Not amazing bowling, but good to see some ball by ball stuff. You wont find this stuff anywhere else, not many people have ball by ball stuff in the entire world from this long ago, ive got some much older Marshall stuff from the early 80's, and Lillee too to come, I do my best!!!!!! I wanna feel the love people.....
 
If i was in Australia, i would rob you Rob :p
 
I'm glad one person likes the Marshall videos. I guess people just dont appreciate the old stuff. Damn 20/20 generation.
 
These are some real pearls Rob. Can't thank you enough for the trouble you take to put up such nice stuff for us.:thumbs
 

Ooh, Vishy! Do you have his 97 at Madras vs the WI? Ranked as the second best Indian innings ever!

And why did you reply to your own comment on the 'Sachin's first runs in Intl' Cricket' video :p
Wow, over 50000 views, this Sachin kid is a good batman obviously???

@robelinda2 Nah he's hack, didnt do much after this fluke innings against an awful NZ 'attack'. Probably working at KFC now. Hah!
 
I would love to see some Shane Warne wickets. Needless to say, he was a treat to watch when in full swing.

any chance of you uploading ball-by-ball innings/matches on a download site like mediafire. The highlights are great but you can't beat watching great moments ball-by-ball.

I understand that this might not be possible due to the huge file-sizes and legal issues.
 
World Cup is around the corner, people will be looking for old wc videos. I think it would be great for business if you now post some WC stuff. :)

I missed Bdesh's win vs Pak in 99, I didn't even know WTH cricket was then, but I did watch the final, and that was my 1st WC ever. So it is pretty special. I'd love to watch some of those matches. Also missed most of vs Ind 07. It'd be great if you'd start with those 2 ;) Or may be just Tamim's inning, every ball of it.
 
Done heaps of WC stuff, but i'm not doing match highlights, I have most matches in full so not possible. Hate highlights.
