Edwards not to be rushed back into action
West Indies coach Ottis Gibson has no plans to rush recuperating fast bowler Fidel Edwards back into action. The 28-year-old pacer recently had corrective surgery to his back and has not played for the regional side now since last June.
Though Gibson regretted not having the Barbadian speedster at his disposal, he said his recovery needed to be thorough. “We can’t afford to rush him because if we rush him and something happens it could put his whole career at risk and we don’t want to do that,” Gibson pointed out.
