405 Test wickets at 20.99, including 7 for 1 at Perth
Overview
The 6 foot 7 Antiguan produced perhaps the most devastating spell of the modern era, 7 wickets for 1 run against Australia at the WACA in 1993, a burst that decided the match. He took 405 Test wickets at 20.99 and spoke rarely, letting the ball answer. He anchored the last great West Indian dynasty.
