Shamar's performance had me giddy with excitement for days but that doesn't mean that Jomel should not be given credit for a great performance.

Give the man credit, even if it's for one day. The man was a master in that series. His variation in speed, height, angle, etc...was unsurpassed by even the best spinners on both sides.

Black,
Nobody is withholding credit from Warrican

You asked an either/or question!

And saying Shamar’s performance against a stronger team on a better pitch, while injured, and bleeding, and not having been best mentally prepared to take the field, is a MORE legendary feat, isn’t taking anything away from what Warrican did.

Put it this way. Who got a huge welcome home celebration and government recognition?

Not sure what is being done for Jomel.

If you asked that question you had not been following the test against Australia, Shamar played injured, a performance that will go down in cricket history books.
