Your West Indian Cricketer's Name

Great stuff all round.

I think Diamond should select an Urban75 'West Indian' XI :cool:

In due course the Urban75 'West Indian' 1st XI will be selected. Hopefully we have enough players to make up a useful 2nd XI too.

It also only seems appropriate that we have a cheerleading squad made up of the various London drag queens who seem to have been trawled up along the way.

I hope you're not tarring Shepherds Bush Shirley with the drag queen tag :hmm:

(she provides after match services in the bar for both teams)
 
Oh well if you put it like that, where are the pom poms?

The First XI

Coppice John – Laidback opener known for his patient, measured innings. Famously batted for three days at Kolkata.

Coverdale Roberts – Unorthodox left hander. Many bowlers were punished by his wristy stroke play.

Longfellow Graham
– Pyrotechnic no.3 with a supercilious manner. Never uttered a word to the opposition while at the crease. Made Glenn McGrath cry.

Yon David – Diminuitive Barbadian Jew. As belligerently talkative as his close friend Longfellow Graham was silent. Career ended in ignominy by the Durban altercation.

Hammersmith Henry - Viv Richards’ heir, destructive middle order batsman par excellence.

Merton James - As good a stroke player and captain of the West Indies as the great Sir Clive Lloyd was in his day.

Pasquale Subramanian – Eccentric Trini wickie. Good with the gloves, experienced at nursing the lower order with the bat and supreme sledger at the wicket.

Barking Ainsley – Voluble, charismatic leg spinner. It was said that many of his own teammates frequently had trouble with his thick Guyanese accent.

Brockley Charles – Jamaican bully boy bowler. Brutally fast and able to extract unusual bounce from any pitch, belying his short, stocky stature.

Kingston Richards – The elder Richards brother. A giant of a man at 6’ 9”, took many wickets with his difficult to pick yorker.

Stretton Richards – Alternating with his brother at the other end, the younger Richards may just have been the most sophisticated medium fast that the West Indies ever had. Once said to have conjured reverse swing within the eleventh over at Lahore.
 
Isn't it the the surname of the US president when you were born + the last UK seaside town/county you visited? Not that there are any hard and fast rules about these things I suppose.

Makes me Regan Monkash anyway.
