On this day 27 years ago, Forever 41: Remembering the great Malcolm Marshall

Malcolm Marshall was fast bowling stripped of superfluity. A man barely six feet tall possessed pace, swing, intelligence, and hostility. Cancer took him at 41. A selfish perspective would be to say that it was a time when West Indies cricket still needed everything he knew.
