Three memorable England v West Indies tests at Lord's

LONDON (Reuters) - West Indies and England have played three particularly memorable tests at Lord's.

In 1950 West Indies recorded their first test victory in

England against a powerful home side and in 1963 the teams fought out a thrilling draw with all four results possible at the start of the final over.

The 2000 test featured an extraordinary second day in which spectators witnessed at least one ball in all four innings.

1950

West Indies landed in England in late April with three batsmen lauded by the cricketing world and two tyro spinners barely known even in the Caribbean.

Frank Worrell, Everton Weekes and Clyde Walcott, each born on the tiny island of Barbados, were magnificent batsmen in differing styles.

Worrell was all elegance, the compact Weekes drove and cut with savage certainty and the powerful Walcott hammered the ball with equal power off both front and back foot.
