When The Frog in a Blender, Paul Adams lofted the ball to Marlon Samuels at Sabina Park, it marked the end of an era in West Indian cricket. The records will show that on that fateful day West Indies won a consolation win against the mighty South Africans but the occasion was made special as one of the best quick bowlers of all time and the true gentleman of international cricket, Courtney Andrew Walsh bowed out of international cricket in fine style - match figures of 6 for 93 and 25 wickets in the series.
Walsh took his first wicket against Australia in 1984. The batsman Graeme Wood would not have imagined that the tall West Indian with large expressive eyes would go on to claim 519 Test wickets at an average of 24.4. His 500th victim was South Africa’s Jacques Kallis and his last his counterpart from South Africa, Allan Donald, to give him his 519th Test wicket.
He is a patriotic player.
he is one of the most loved crciketer in westindiws and when he retires I think the w.i will lose it lion
