Delivered from the clouds it seemed and at a lively pace that when the mood took could be cranked up to the brisk side of rapid the ball would rear alarmingly from barely short of a length. Allied to that was the most devastating toe crunching yorker the game had seen. Of the top wicket-takers few have a lower average than his 20.98.At Lord’s in 1979 he simply blew England’s slim hopes away with 5-38 the best figures ever in a World Cup final.This stunning A4 original press photo is personally signed by Joel with Best Wishes. The photo was signed in 2005 and is presented in excellent condition.
