Snap of the Day

Continuing our recent theme of "when West Indies were good"; this photo is from the Second Test of the 1984 series at Lord's in which England had had the temerity to declare in their second innings to chase victory.  Gordon Greenidge's response?  He bludgeoned  214 not out off a mere 242 balls to ensure a Windies victory by a staggering 9 wickets, and was fully deserving of this little breather in the midst of it all.
