Shoulder barges and flying stumps

The West Indian tourists to New Zealand in 1979/80 are remembered some of the most bitter and petulant people to have ever played cricket. Michael Holding kicked over the stumps (but still managed to look elegant), most of the team refused to attend after match presentations and - of course - Colin Croft shoulder barged umpire Fred Goodall. Brilliant players. Ugly memories.
