This documentary portrays all the West Indian fast bowlers of that age in a defensive stance. Except Sir Viv Richards they did not have any genuine good batsman, so they banked upon the fast bowlers to 'throw' the ball at opponents body and call that genuine fast bowling. This kind of portrayal is utter disrespect of cricket.
Also saying that India surrendered in the fourth test at Sabina Park is a clear indication of baseless arrogance among the West Indian cricketers. It was the desperation of West Indies to win the test series after the humiliation in Australian which led them to employ techniques of throwing short pitched bowls aimed at the batsman's body and then defend their atrocity by saying that 'If they did not complain of the punishment received at the hands of Australians then why should Indians complain.' and also that 'Indians were ill-equipped to play fast bowling'. But it does not mention the record chase of 404 runs by the Indians in the second test of the same series after which they unleashed cheap techniques to win the fourth test.
Later when rules were formalized for fast bowling so that bowlers like Andy Roberts, Michael Holding etc. do not deliberately injure batsmen, they show as if the rules were made in order to decimate West Indian fast bowling. This sort of accusations alone display what sort of spirit that team had for cricket - it was annoyance and disgust for others and the thirst to show that they are superior than others even if it takes to maim the opponent team.
