The West Indian quicks were awesome, I fancied myself as a bit of a Michael Holding, but was actually built more like Marshall. Marshall was incredible, as he got older he learnt the art of bowling, and became a master of swing and seam, as well as bowling the skiddiest bouncer in world cricket!
Then there was Joel, Curtley, Wayne, Colin, Andy, Patrick, Ian, Winston,Sylvester, and Courtney to name a few. Wow how good were they!

Decided to take a trip down memory lane ... viewing the "84, "86, and "88 series England Vs West Indies.

Here are Marshall"s figures.

"84 : 24 wickets for 437 runs : Average 18.20 : Best 7-53
"86 : 27 wickets for 482 runs : Average 17.85 : Best 4-38
"88 : 35 wickets for 443 runs : Average 12.65 : Best 7-22

I forgot how ridiculous his figures were ... strike rate 46.7 balls per wicket ...

Ten test 50s with the bat ... fair play to the chief ... defo my favourite bowler of all time.

I think Richards my favourite batsmen ... I forgot he scored that 110 not out in 58 balls in St Johns (1986)

1st Innings - Holding 73 off 63 balls - Marshall 76

Then to rub it in Roger Harper bowls 12-8-10-3 ... GENIUS
