yes, lisle, a great performance there...but really mate, the West Indies have'nt been much kop since the burly days of curtly, gordon, des, viv and courtney...unfortunately for you, you were just born whilst they were causing pain all over the world...I was lucky to have seen them,albeit as a whipper snapper, they'd certainly give the current australian side a good game, and perhaps the two best sides of international cricket ever...mind you holding, sobers and the boys of the 70s were pretty "useful" aswell :

thanks

Yeah, I feel honoured to have been there at Curtly's last match at the Oval. Great to see him and Courtney in action before they called it a day.
