Greatest Season That Was, Episode 5 – India with Harsha Bhogle
India, but not at all as they are today. A quarter of a century ago, before their financial might dictated practically every decision made in the global game, the men in blue were just another cricket team. A very talented team, with a group of prodigiously capable batters, but a side that would ultimately fail to reach the business end of the tournament in focus. To explain that progression, looking back before, during and after Ninety9, there could be nobody better than Harsha Bhogle. With Dan Brettig (The Age) and Shannon Gill (Code Sports).
