Maybe Roddy needs to follow in Australia's footsteps by introducing missile-guiding technology to improve their fast bowling:

Quote:Australia’s fast bowlers will embark on their upcoming tour of Sri Lanka bolstered by technology more commonly used in military settings. Researchers have been able to develop a revolutionary algorithm using submarine and guided missile technology to reduce injuries and improve performance of the country’s pacemen.

The “torpedo technology” is being used by the Australian team in preparations for the upcoming Sri Lanka tour and also its bid to reclaim the Ashes from England in 2017.

Fellow sports scientist and researcher Dean McNamara said that once the algorithm detects a delivery, a measure of bowling intensity could be attached to that individual delivery using a “accelerometer” and gyroscope technology. “Tagging individual balls with an intensity measure provides both immediate analysis such as identifying effort balls, or potentially a drop in performance due to fatigue, or longer term workload analysis,” McNamara said.

“Measuring bowling intensity for individual balls or sessions provides context for the acute and chronic workload of the individual bowler, and ultimately the preparedness of the bowler for the maximal workload of the immediate competition.”

Hopefully missile tech will reach the Caribbean by 2020  :-[

Not sure who that R. Powell guy is. He's the only batsman who turned up for WI.
