WI v ENG: Sir Vivian Richards & Ian Botham Unveil 'Richards-Botham' Trophy
Legendary cricketers Sir Vivian Richards and Lord Ian Botham unveiled the new Richards-Botham Trophy that England and West Indies will now compete for in Test cricket.
"It's a truly special feeling to have the fantastic trophy named in honor of my great friend Ian and myself. We played a lot together and built a great friendship on and off the cricket field. As I said earlier, I am truly delighted to know that the game that I have shown my love for all my life is naming such a prestigious award in recognition of what I managed to achieve. It's a beautiful trophy and I want to again thank everyone who came up with this idea and contributed to its creation," said Richards.
