This week, Kemar Roach is sitting on the West Indies Academy bench. Next week, he is expected to be in the Barbados Pride camp. That’s the life of the 36-year-old as he continues his rehabilitation from a slight groin injury sustained in Pakistan last month. He has signed a player/mentor contract which sees him assisting young fast bowlers around the region as well as continuing his playing career.

Great to hear, one of the great unsung heroes of WI cricket.
I'm sure his contribution will be immense , both for the bowling skills he can share but even more importantly the focus he has put on fitness throughout his career .

Good stuff, the way he has managed to reinvent himself after the injuries and return after what looked like the end of his career has been an achievement.

This is very good.

This is what we needed from those that we invested in from youth cricket such as Pollard, Narine, Bravo, Dillon, Hinds, Samuels, Gayle, Smith, Edwards, Russel, Shillingford, Lendl Simmons, Bradshaw, Xavier Marshall, Deonarine

Floyd Riefer seems to be interested in giving back but I don't think he can teach anything.

i wonder if Darren Bravo could possibly be approached to do a similar job for young batters

They should approach him - he has good technique. He has to also remember, as a mentor, you also demonstrate proper attitudes off the field as well

I was with you on your first sentence.

I can't agree with the second sentence bro.
I'm sure that I am not alone in this.

i think that the second sentence was a suggestion/warning to Bravo, not a statement of fact.
