He Was A WI opening bat with a style that was ....... well ... beyond description

 

[superkingdave]

An old-fashioned chunky biffer
it was his preposterous heave off Phil Tufnell's first ball of the third day that kick-started a dramatic West Indian collapse
he wasn't finished with international cricket, In 2004 he reappeared, aged 42, in the middle-order for the USA.

 

[superkingdave]

He played vs Canada in Davison's 117wickets match, scoring 2 and 11 and then played against Bermuda scoring 13 & 4. this was in the intercontinetal cup.

He also played in the americas cricket competition scoring 42 vs Argentina and 42* against Bermuda

I preffered Phillo Wallace

but we didn't lose either. That and the fact that that game was marred by quite a bit of rain.

Yes you didn't lose, but the fact remains that there was 4 days play, and most sides have beaten Bangladesh easily within that timescale, but the Windies weren't eve close to doing so.

Ban- 416 & 271/9 d

WI-352 & 113/0 (23 ov) chasing 336 to win

I would have backed WI to get them.

 

[Craig]

As the young quicks continue to struggle with injuries and erratic form, I think Merv will get another recall over the next 12 months.

He does give them some experience in the bowling department.

 

[deeps]

i beleive he got struk by lightning a few months ago

 

[ash chaulk]

are you joking???

 

[Richard]

I seemed to hear something like that.
Was at work listining to the radio on and off, though, so I didn't catch the whole thing.

 

[steds]

i beleive he got struk by lightning a few months ago

you what?

 

[roseboy64]

Yeah.Up until that last match where the WI had a small glimmer of hope and he dashe d it all away.

 

[roseboy64]

He did get struck by lightning in a FC Match.

 

[Revelation]

He got struck by lightning. IMO i think he doesn't have a role to play esp if WI is looking to youth.

 

[roseboy64]

Dillon's had numerous chances and done nothing spectacular until the ODI series with England.He should be like Collins and take the opportunity when it comes.
