Murray hails maturing Ramdin
Fri, Mar 7, '14
FORMER West Indies wicketkeeper, Deryck Murray, believes current WI keeper Denesh Ramdin is now channelling criticism positively and maturing into the player everyone expected him to be.
Ramdin, 28-years-old, became the first wicketkeeper from the Windies to score a hundred in a One-Day International on Wednesday when he struck a magnificent 128 that almost single-handedly propelled the regional team to victory against England.
His knock was not enough, though, as he was last man out with the regional side still 25 runs short of the victory target. England won the series 2-1.

Ramdin ton not enough to save Windies
Wed, Mar 5, '14
NORTH STAND, Antigua – England survived a threatening century from Denesh Ramdin to beat West Indies by 25 runs and clinch the series two-one at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium on Wednesday.
Ramdin singlehandedly inspired a fantastic lower order comeback after a typical top order batting collapse with a career best 128 that almost denied England of series glory. A fashionable collapse of the West Indies top order threw the run chase into disarray as the Caribbean side was reeling at 43 for four.
