Main article:West Indian cricket team in England in 1976

TheWest Indies travelled to England on the back of a busy schedule which had seen them playAustralia andIndia during the1975–76 season, which led some commentators to speculate that they might be jaded.[3] The first two Test matches were drawn; theWisden editor blamed the West Indies' lack of a spin bowler as preventing them from winning the first match,[4] while in the second match a whole day was lost to rain with England on top.[5] The West Indies won the three remaining Test matches to win the series 3–0, largely due to theirfast bowlers.Viv Richards scored two double centuries, and finished as the leading run-scorer on either team, despite missing the second Test with an injury.[6]

In the three-matchOne Day International series, Richards was again dominant in the first two games, scoring 119 and 97 to help the West Indies to victories. In the third ODI, when Richards was dismissed without scoring,Gordon Greenidge scored 42 andClive Lloyd made 79 to guide their side to a 50-run win. The last two matches were each affected by rain; the second ODI was spread over two days, while the third utilised the reserve day after no play was possible at all on first day.[7]
