Most of the indian former cricketrs are associated with TV News Channels.Most of the indian News TV channels are more "Cricket Channels" than News channels, so they would be getting good money there.
And now after the arrival of leagues like ICL & IPL ,everyone has got some job.

Very interesting read that. Must say I'd thought Croft was fairly well respected, or at least accepted, in teh Carib.

Wasn't he also a commercial pilot for a time?

Ambrose and Richie were hilariois in an Aussie goes Calypo - Curtley looked so awkward playing base, and had grown a mullet!! They were playing a gig for an Aussie tour group, looked a triffle sad actually, would have been disillusioned more than anything to meet a personal hero like Curtley in that circumstance.

Think so yeah.

As for his widespread respect or otherwise, dunno about at large, but know Camps has never had much time for him.

Not for the first time either.
