balls profile: ravi rampaul

No man can waddle like Ravi Rampaul.  His hips are seductive weapons he uses to distract batsmen as he comes in to bowl his medium fast occasional swingers.  Prone to overs of such ineptitude that even Morne Morkel feels sorry for him.  Then he gets it right, and you can sort of see why he keeps getting picked.  Apparently he was once a batsman.  This is mentioned during his many innings of looking like shit, but even more so in the odd innings where he does make runs. If Ravi was a maths equation, I wouldn’t be able to solve him.

balls profile: Denesh Ramdin

Plays the cut shot like he was born to be a test cricketer.  Plays the rest like he won a raffle to be a test cricketer for the day.  If you wanted a replacement for Jeff Dujon, and you could only afford to buy one at Target, Ramdin is your man.  Is a tough little fella who obviously has a brain, but he just isn’t that good at the keeping or batting business.  Has a poorer name that Chadwick Walton.  Seems to be desperate to stay on as an International cricketer, which is not a very West Indian trait these days. Is mostly famous for being the one West Indian player no one can really remember.

balls profile: Brendan Nash

A small cuddly marsupial from Queensland. Despite his obvious lack of talent, Nash has ferreted his way into international cricket.  He fights hard at the crease in much the same way a stuttering cross eyed mobile phone sales man does when tying to sell you a mobile plan in a shopping centre. Is not actually White, but is the lightest player to play for the windies since some other whitie. Nash has been described as the physical embodiment of a net bowler.
