Awesome thread. Seen him since he was 11 eleven years old. He was born to be a cricketer. A West Indian cricketer of the golden days.
The name of the local club he plays for is called 'Young Warriors Cricket Club'. He is the 2nd international player to come out of that club (The first being Damodar Daesrath, who played a couple of internationals for Canada).

There was one shot in that innings which showed prowess. It was a slower ball from either Curran or Plunkett that Shimron sat back and waited for. He pounced on it. Dispatching it to the cover boundary where there was enough real estate.

Eh, he's only played a handful. He'll come around soon enough.

I like him don't get me wrong. But I feel he's tried to slog every ball in every test innings he's had. Bit worrying

He hadn't played much FC cricket. I feel he doesn't know how to pace an innings in the longer form yet. If he does over the next year or so, he is going to be insanely good.
As it is, he appears destined for ODI greatness at least. He's averaging 42 with a strike rate of 110 and 4 tons already.

I'm a bit worried about him. Firstly, he put on loads of weight.
Then Delhi daredevils handled him awfully, dropping him right after he started performing.
Now he toured nz with no match practice at all and sat on the bench. The likes of Hety and King desperately need to play some FC cricket and get some runs on the board.

Ever since he got that girl, he's lost most of his touch. The girl feeding him well: roti, 7-curry, cook-up-rice.
After all, they're both from my county of Berbice.

Hety failed his third fitness test in 18 months to rule himself out of the white ball squads for the Ireland and England matches in January.
He will miraculously be fit again in time for the IPL. He is 25 so still has time, but it looks like yet another West Indian talent may well be wasted.
