Book excerpt: This study offers an intriguing analysis of the famous Three Ws of West Indian Cricket who were born within seventeen months and a mile from each other near the Kensington Oval Cricket Ground in Bridgetown, Barbados. They were destined to become three of the greatest cricketers in the world who would eventually be knighted for their sparkling batting records and meritorious service to cricket and the society in general. The study traces their humble beginnings in colonial Barbados, their ascendancy in the Barbados and West Indian Cricket teams in an era of struggle for justice, democracy, equality, and majority rule in the British West Indies. Most of all the study focuses on the endless debate, which goes on in the cricket world as to who was the greatest among the three. This book is filled with facts, figures and statistics not easily found elsewhere.
