The West Indians of my youth (84 vintage) were all sleek in my recollection? Memory tricks or truth. I loved them, whatever.

Funny, I thought that, but remember him as being lythe, despite that. (Not Adam)

I might be wrong, but having seen both left handers bat, I'm guessing this is the first time that Adam Lyth has been mentioned in the same conversation as Clive Lloyd?

He was tall - not quite as tall as Joel Garner, but bigger than Michael Holding and much bigger than Sir Viv. He was also one of the first cricketers to do weight training.
The Aussies called him supercat, I don't think he had much fat on him in the early part of his career.
