No, it's sad isn't it? Scarecly a West Indian supporter in the crowd. I suppose that this Windies team isn't even the best team in the West Indies...

I'll always remember them like this espncricinfo.com ...

Andy Lloyd was there at the 'Parade of 'legends'' which they did in the 'lunch' interval. 50 Tests at Edgbaston and lots of old players (mostly either Warks. or working in the media.) Shame, we'll never know if he could have been any good at that level.

Brilliant link :)

I wanted to be Jeff Thomson when I was a kid, but only because I thought the Windies fast bowlers were too terrifying to constitute role models.

I bet the Windies were quaking in their boots at the prospect of facing Willis, Botham, Del Pringle, Nick Cook and Geoff Miller

You have to admit, on reflection, that Pringle had a good game. was that actually his only good game..?

Geoff Miller, Derbyshire lad. Couldn't bat, non spinning spinner. He was no Derek Pringle.

Didn't he look like a cheap imitation Jack Russell?
