Alf Valentine 33 wickets and Sonny Ramadhin 26 wickets spun a web of mystery around the English bastmen to deliver the first ever Windies victory in England.
After going down in the first test The Windies came back to take the series 3-1.
The 3 W's - Worrell Weekes and Walcott - all got hundreds in the series and only Len Hutton stood upto the Windies spin menace.
