Wow ! you have traveled down my street since cricket is the only sport I have played competitively. I still play in Japan when time allows but not in the competitions as it is too taxing.
I can’t complain about your four - older Jamaicans will throw in Lawrence Rowe and Collie Smith. Jeff Dujon started off as a batsman and probably would have had better numbers if it weren’t for the keeping. I watched him playing a game in his 50s at the annual Melbourne festival where he took off like an eagle at mid off to take a catch off Philo Wallace well above his head. I would have loved to have seen him in his younger days. The others I’ve seen at Sabina park at one time or another.
@Dmilliz nothing beats a live game at Sabina, from the lines outside , the smell of jerk chicken , and all the other food people carried with them. The blast of the conch shell 🐚, the soca and calypso , shouts of Noooooo from the crowd when the batsman plays a defensive strove after smashing a four. Cricket lovely cricket !
Btw- I think Jimmy Adams deserves an honorable mention. His role was under appreciated in the W. I. Pity how his career ended but now he’s director of Cricket in the West Indies and is trying to make cricket great again. I guess I’m still passionate about the game. Memories! Thanks -great work !
