EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the historic cricket match between Ireland and West Indies in July 1969. The image captures a moment of pure jubilation as Irish players celebrate their memorable victory over the formidable West Indian team. In this iconic snapshot, we see two key figures who played instrumental roles in securing this remarkable triumph for Ireland. On the left stands the indomitable Irish skipper, Big Doug Goodwin, his face beaming with pride and joy. Goodwin's exceptional performance on that day saw him take an astonishing five wickets for just six runs, leaving the West Indian batsmen stunned. Standing beside him on the right is Alex O'Riordan, another hero of that unforgettable match. O'Riordan's outstanding bowling skills resulted in him also claiming five wickets for a mere 18 runs, contributing significantly to West Indies' collapse at a meager total of 25 runs. The backdrop of this exhilarating victory was set at the picturesque Village of Sion Mills in County Tyrone, adding to its significance as one of Ireland's most cherished sporting moments. Trevor McBride skillfully captures this timeless scene through his lens, preserving it forever within this stunning print from Memory Lane Prints. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to that glorious era of cricket in the 1960s when passion and skill converged to create everlasting memories on fields like these.
