Fire in Babylon, ESPN Classics, 6:15 p.m. today and 2:45 p.m. tomorrow

Take a look at how strategy, leadership and determination became part of a winning recipe for success.    See "Fire in Babylon," a documentary that chronicles the exploits of the West Indies Cricket Team and airs on ESPN Classics at 6:15 p.m. today and 2:45 p.m. tomorrow. The West Indies compiled one of the most successful winning records in team sports history during the late 70s, 80s, and mid 90s.


The West Indies learned from their competitors, improved on and duplicated their successes, prepared and planned, then went out and simply destroyed the competition... a great formula used by the West Indies leadership to build a winning legacy that was unmatched at that time in professional sports.
