Cricket West Indies (CWI) has paid tribute to Sir Everton Weekes, the legendary West Indies batsman. He died on Wednesday at his home in Barbados. Sir Everton was a member of the famous Three Ws – which included his other famous team-mates Sir Frank Worrell and Sir Clyde Walcott.

“He had an amazing legacy as a great cricketer and great human being. He was one of the most humble and decent persons you would have ever met.
