Happy Birthday Courtney

Happy Birthday Courtney

Some time ago during October 29 1962, in a small town Kingston,Jamaica Joan Wollaston gave birth to a lovely Boy who later was specialized in Accounts and Commerce. however this Young boy had a passion which most Jamaicans of that time had, Cricket. He started his career as a cricketer in local Jamaica Youth team when Kapil Dev Won the first World Cup for India. It was there he got nick name as "Duracell", because of his ability to bowl long spells (isn`t that ironic).

Then, it was the year 1984, World faced the fearsome fast bowler from West Indies where the young Duracell turned to be a nightmare for many top batsman of his time. He along Curtly Ambrose formed a partnership which broke many wickets and made the West Indian bowling a formidable one.

Yes This day on 1962, the fearsome yet Gentle and soft spoken Courtney Walsh born in Kingston Jamica.
