Fidel Edwards: A Caribbean Cult Classic

Been posted in the offical thread, but thought it should get its own thread.

Fidel Edwards: A Caribbean Cult Classic

Quote:
As West Indies head into the third Test match against Australia, they do so with aspirations of leveling the series at 1-1. The Frank Worrell Trophy is now out of their hands, but there is still the pride of a drawn series up for grabs. And whatever hope the home team bears depends largely on the potency of the front line bowling attack, particularly Fidel Edwards. A cursory look at the series statistics locates Edwards second only to Brett Lee in wickets. His 11 wickets are already a series high, though he has only once played more than 3 Tests in a series. Now it remains to be seen how far he can extend his personal record in Bridgetown. Click here to read more.

Excellent read and a fair assessment, imo, of Edwards career and recent improvement so far, considering, as the article alludes to, his total inexperience when first selected for Test cricket.

Good stuff.

Despite the article, I still feel that Fidel Edwards looks like a young Tracy Chapman.
