I remember when Azeem Hafeez toured here in the early 80s and dropped a catch at fine leg. Richie Benaud was commentating and said what a terrible attempt it was. Thought at the time it was a bit harsh given the disadvantage the fella was operating under.

Not sure if anyone mentioned.

But Everton Weekes leg injury that greatly impeded his career.

Bloody hell. I realised he was short, but not that short. I thought he was Dave Boon/Mushfiqur Rahim kinda height.
It’s not true lol. I think it must be some sort of a joke that’s become entrenched as fact on the internet.

Likewise, Boon is a lot taller than the 5’3” that comes up when you google him and I suspect that’s also a joke that no-one has bothered to correct. He’d certainly have plenty of height on Rahim.
