My father told me that Headly was the greatest Westindian cricketer of all time ... who am I to disagree with him?
Probably the first great WI batsman. Who predated him?

The otherwise great documentary, "Fire in Babylon", also omits Kanhai. Players like Kanhai and Kalicharran don't fit into a very specific myth; the myth that the black pride and civil rights movements were the sole forces behind the resurrgence of WI cricket.
Still, inside Guyana and Trinidad, every serious cricket fan knows Kanhai.

Sir Viv Richards he is the best batsmen and the best captain..He was the only person who could hit a SIX of the backfoor.
Of course Lara too is a legnd,but ow come people forget these earlier legends so easily..
Sir. Viv played in an era where Helmet was just a concept,it wasn't worn in as well.
Hug Respect..!!
West Indies cannot produce such players again the West Indies team is dependent on one person Shiv Chandrapul..and that too they are planning to discard him now..completely..I Don,t know what has gone wrong with WI

Well his batting records speak for themselves! People talking about Viv Richards base on pure emotions while the evidence suggests that Lara is the best West Indies test batsman!
