When Dujon had to leave the field who kept the stumps for a while?

In reply to solidrock

You pose an interesting question.

I seem to recall Viv Richards substituting as wicketkeeper in a One Day match.

Also, I think Desmond Haynes substituted in a Test match.

Ritchie Richardson was a wicketkeeper in his younger days but I can't remember him ever wicketkeeping for West Indies.

However, there's a good chance he probably did.

Think I remember Viv doing duties behind the stumps .

Austin & Dujon were never in the West Indies team together.

It was Viv in a test match and he took a catch and dropped one.

In reply to jacksprat

read in a book recently that Richard Austin kept wicket in a packer series final just to balance the team the regular keeper wasn't pleased about being sidelined must have been Deryck Murray and not Jeff Dujon.

Did Dujon have to leave the field?

Haynes
