ST JOHN’S, Antigua – Cricket West Indies (CWI) yesterday paid tribute to Sonny Ramadhin, the legendary spin bowler who passed away at age 92. Ramadhin was an outstanding match-winner and formed a famous partnership with left-arm spinner Alf Valentine throughout their careers. They were a crucial part of the team which led West Indies to a famous 3-1 series win against England in 1950. Ramadhin had remarkable match figures of 11 wickets for 152 runs in the historic win at Lords – West Indies first Test match win in England.

so while we are giving England some real good hard practice what will our selected team be doing, do they have a practice game or will they be sitting around getting more out of form and waiting to be devoured in 3 days, one other thing, do we really have an advantage when playing at home? the apposition seem to know our condition better than we do
