Title

Geoff Boycott of England

Description

"England's main run-getter opener, Geoff Boycott, hooks for four in his unfinished innings of 83. He later got a nasty blow on the left forearm from Jamaica and West Indies pacer Uton Dowe, when he left a ball alone outside the off stump. The ball bounced and hit Boycott on the arm. He retired hurt and was taken to hospital where an X-ray examination later showed that no bones were broken."
