.....and many others bigger or smaller than him.

Who can blame our so called " mercenaries" for maximizing their earnings if the right conditions present,.

MB prattle about loyalty is one way , never about loyalty to the players .

To this day WI players have only a " frame " of a support structure from the WI Cricket Board.

A toothless frame at that as proven many times over through the decades.

Among the many real quick bowlers I have seen, I was fortunate enough to see him live during his peak. He was the quickest, bar none. They made such a fuss over the 95mph deliveries sent down by Mark Wood earlier this year. Man, I tell you...95mph would be Patrick Patterson's slower ball!

Also, I should add that after the match, my father and I met Patrick Patterson and he was a thoroughly pleasant young man. If I had been holding a bat at 22 yards, my opinion would likely have been different!
