The messiest player in the West Indies dressing room

When you started out as a kid playing cricket , could you ever have imagined

you would captain your country ?


As a young player, it's always the ultimate honour to represent your country and perform for them.

With the captaincy, as time goes by you gain experience and people look at you and assess your

credentials. It was a great feeling for me when I was made captain.

So many great players have captained the West Indies team through the years.

On June 23, 2006, you wrote yourself into the history books. Do you know why ?

Was I the youngest player to get to 5000 runs ?

No, you hit six fours in an over against India off Munaf Patel

Yes, I did! Although, I got a bit of luck. One of them I got an inside edge past the stumps

and another went past Yuvraj Singh, who dived. It was all done pretty instinctively.

Where were you when you received your first Test call-up?

I'd just played a game in Guyana. They gave me a call on my landline to tell me

I was in the squad.

Who was the messiest in the West Indies dressing room ?

I've got to say myself. I have my stuff all over the place.

You have played 286 times for West Indies. Do you think you will ever add to that?

Quite frankly, with the players that are about now, I think it will be difficult.

I'll just try to keep doing what I'm doing and scoring runs.

Three guesses to find out who and the first two don't count ..... LOL

Where do you keep your first Test shirt?

Safely in the wardrobe.

Which of your team-mates past or present has the best arm?
Dwayne Smith
.
Which one bowler did you hate facing in the nets?
Tino Best.


Who is the biggest joker?
Chris Gayle. Everything he does in the dressing room is funny. He is so laidback and he makes everyone laugh. The "Gangnam Style" stuff is a typical example.

We know the West Indies love a dance. Who has the best moves?
Dwayne Bravo.

Who is your best mate at Windies Bar?

Must be Ketchim ...  ;D

You used to wear a bandana under your helmet but now you don't. Why?

Before I wore a bandana because the helmet was a bit too big for me.

I could never find the right size to wear and the bandana made my head a bit bigger.

When I found the right size I got rid of the bandana.
