“The Dentist” From Nevis – Cricket News

Andrew Miller

John Maynard now divides his time between net-bowling duties to visiting World Cup teams and
appearing as a guest summariser on Test Match Special At www.Stanford2020.com

To an English cricket fan of the early 1990s, John “The Dentist” Maynard was one of the most
evocative characters imaginable. One might even go so far as to suggest he is the most famous West
Indian (Nevis, West Indies) fast bowler never to have played a Test. Those who were not hooked on the coverage of England’s tour of the Caribbean in 1993-94 will probably have no idea who he is. Others, like
myself, could give chapter and verse on his marmalisation of England’s middle-order during their
build-up to that winter’s Test series.

Maynard, to this distant long-wave listener of Test Match Special, typified an era when a tour of
the West Indies was the ultimate examination of body and soul. The arrival of a Test team in the
Caribbean, particularly if it had come from England, was a call to arms for every aspiring
cricketer in the region. Long before Duncan Fletcher turned tour games into a 12-man-a-side
glorified net session, Maynard and his cronies were cranking up the pace and injecting the venom,
eager to advance their claims to Test selection, but equally determined to crush the tourists’
morale before they embarked on the main event.

Nevis Benefits From Cricket World Cup

Charlestown, Nevis

“We in St. Kitts – Nevis have made history not only in terms of hosting World Cup but we are now actually in the record books as we had Gibbs from South Africa hitting six sixes in an over and that was done right here in Warner Park.”
 
Those were the sentiments of Oscar Walters, President of the Nevis Cricket Association in a brief interview with SKNVibes on the economic impact of ICC World Cup Cricket. 
 
“I do not see an immediate impact on the economy in the sense that it is ongoing and I am not seeing the visitor turnout that I expected for the World Cup.  As this is the first round of matches it is not a round where you see a lot of big teams and so forth performing.  While I do not see a big impact in terms of the economy, I do see something happening later down the road as we are now on the world map,” he said.
