Shai does not command the level of respect from the players. He holds no one accountable.

He was misfielding plenty, plenty. So Viv gave him the sign to "go back more."

When he reached the boundary Richard Austin pointed out that "there was no where else to go." Viv shouted "get off de field."

Strange, if anything Germs was a great fielder. Gabriel or someone else maybe?

You are correct...my bad. It is Ritchie Gabriel. It was a Trini.
