LEST WE FORGET
We are nostalgic. We have long memories. We remember the good times. We remember
the bad times. Who are we ? We are New Zealand sports fans and we are
Retro Cricket.
Our mission in life is simple. We want to enjoy a good beer with mates, catch
a few rays of sunshine, take the piss and to pay recognition to some of the
more memorable moments in New Zealand sport.
We grew up as Kiwis who loved and followed sport. We idolised names like
Stu Wilson, Beegee Williams, Richard Hadlee and John Walker. These guys were
legends and we remembered every special moments in their careers.
And we still haven’t forgotten. And one thing we – nor any other
Kiwi - has forgotten is the events of the 1st of February 1981. A day we
now know as “Underarm 81.” A day where our fanatical love affair
with cricket intensified. On this date 11 of New Zealand’s finest men,
resplendent in tight fitting Beige went into battle with the enemy, the
Australian cricket team.
99.5 overs later we were on the verge of an unlikely victory when the Chappell
brothers disgraced themselves and their nation when they bowled the very
last delivery of the match underarm to prevent our main man, Brian McKecknie
from hitting a 6 to draw the match.
We never forgot this game and now we pay tribute to our men who played that
day by putting those beige uniforms back on. By putting the Beige back on
we wish to recapture some of the great days of New Zealand sport. Days when
New Zealand cricket gave 100% and never flinched in the pursuit of victory.
Days when it took dastardly acts to deny our men victory.
Those were great days and we want to relive them. We welcome you all to our
website and hope that like us you will wear the “Beige” with pride.
Lest we forget.
Now it's your chance to wear a bit of history with your very
own Retro Cricket shirt.
