The cricketing genome had been ingrained very early in his life by his father, who took him out onto the streets of Albion in the Berbice county of Guyana and bowl to him after he returned from school each day. It was his father Mohanlal's dream for Devendra to represent West Indies at the highest level, for which the seeds were sown very early. His cricketing activities continued, but unlike most kids who grew up bonding with their fathers over a game of cricket, Bishoo lacked proper counsel having lost that guiding force early in his life.

"Me and Imran [Tahir] play for the same team in the CPL. We share a good relationship. He's a very nice guy, he's an amazing guy. Every single day, he's shown me how he'd go about bowling, the way he holds the ball and the different things he does with it, the different googlies that he bowls, the different legspinners that he bowls, sliders and stuff. I kind of pick up a lot but it's in practice right now," says Bishoo, going on to reflect on the importance of legspinners.

Now it's my wife, her name is Sabrina. She's very straightforward and she's very supportive. When I have a bad game she just makes me relax and tries to make me understand how it goes sometimes. I know how the game goes and how it works. But sometimes you forget the little things, that you need to relax. She keeps me motivated. She, my manager, my mom and uncle, they have made the biggest difference in my life.
Good bhai Bish...motor on

self determination embraced by a good support system helps to define success. Hope WICB learn something from these stories.
We saw a similar story told by Alvin Kallicharran as well.

vemen walter is a good man...he has helped many of the guys find some direction
"I had my manager who kept encouraging me, kept motivating me. He's like a brother, father and best friend for me. He's everything to me, I thank him a lot for whatever he's done for me. I don't have words to express how much he's done for me. I can remember the days when I used to go play cricket in town and he used to take money out of his own pocket and give me. I'm not shy to talk about that. Even when I was playing for the club he used to do the same. He used to give money to play cricket in town in Georgetown. My mom couldn't afford much. My uncle, who wanted me to start playing cricket and who encouraged me to go (and play), he's the one who bought all my cricket stuff for the first time, from white clothes to pads, everything. He's the one who helped me with that."
