Caribbean Nights (2): C.L.R. James's First Cricket XI

Born in Trinidad in 1901, C.L.R. James came to England in the 1930s and was cricket correspondent for the Manchester Guardian. In this programme the author of the now classic book 'Beyond the Boundary' selects his definitive cricket team. From W.G. Grace to Gary Sobers, C.L.R.'s choice spans seven decades and, using rare archive film, reveals some of the greatest moments in cricketing history.
