T&T.The Most Feared Bowler You’ve Never Heard Off

This 6'6" titan from the 1980s West Indies production line boasted a remarkable Test bowling average of 17.13. Despite dismantling opponents with steep bounce, injuries cut short a promising international career, turning this dominant force into a compelling what-if story.

I am going to do some research and write a thread about him, Bishop and Tony was before my time.

I never saw them bowl other that video clips.

Seems to be a trend with TiT bowlers as one Ian Bishop comes to mind.

Ps. You are a youngster. Going fwd please address me as Sir Natty. 😂

That or hiding his age😃. On a serious note Gray wasn't just a fastbowler but awkward as hell. Deliveries climbed from back of a length. I think Nieta wasn't just afraid of The Bajes but Gray and Bish too.

Sir Natty

See why I ignore certain posters on this site....

I was overseas at University doubling up on courses, had little time for cricket.

Natty, I missed about 15 years of West Indies cricket...

Given scholarships to the US and England....Education came before anything else.

Today , I look for videos that tell of players and what writers said about them

I will post what I read about Tony Gray tomorrow.
