Former England batsman Graeme Fowler reflects on his amazing performance against the iconic West Indian team of 1984 where he scored 106 runs at Lord's. Fowler's preparation for the match was unorthodox as he drank 3 pints of Guinness to cure his inability to sleep the night before, leading to a great nostalgic story.
