The international matches were dominated by the West Indies, captained by Clive Lloyd. England struggled against the batting of Gordon Greenidge and Viv Richards and the pace bowling of Michael Holding, Andy Roberts, Vanburn Holder and Wayne Daniel. Richards smashed 829 runs in four Tests, but missed the 2nd Test due to illness. Impressive individual performances for England included centuries for Tony Greig and Alan Knott in the 4th Test, a double century by Dennis Amiss in the 5th Test, and the bowling of John Snow, Bob Willis and Derek Underwood.
