Lloyd is back, one more time
Sun, Aug 17, '14
Clive Lloyd is back in the forefront of West Indies cricket, and West Indians, it seems, are happy about it, as surprising as it is.
Lloyd, the captain of the world champion team of the 1970s and the 1980s - arguably the greatest team of all time - manager, coach, chairman of the cricket committee, director of the West Indies Cricket Board, and defeated candidate for the presidency of the board, was selected as chairman of the selection committee last week in another bid to change the direction of West Indies cricket.
Considered by many as the second-greatest captain in the history of West Indies cricket, Lloyd was known as a hard-hitting left-handed batsman and a brilliant fielder, in the deep as well as in the slips.
