I know I'm not crazy. There was a new member here and they posted in this thread about cricket and baseball. That message isn't here anymore (mods, damn you) Where is that member? Can anyone send him/her to me? Explanation about the delete? Troll or no? If no, then damn you. If yes, then yay? I guess?
To keep this thread going along its merry way, I want to give a shout out to
Lionel Baker.
The Island of Montserrat was devastated when the previously dormant volcano La Soufriere erupted in the mid-90s. The island was all but devastated. To have a Test player from that country was seen as a highlight for those few residents who were even able to stay.
Things were so bad that they actually filmed survival shows there, in a post-apocalyptic or post-disaster wasteland.
He was less than average at best, but the fact that he rose to overcome his entire island almost being destroyed, it's something.
