Everton D Weekes

1925-2020 R I, P.

Cricket has produced hundreds of individual heroes, memorable pairs by the score, and several permutations of West Indian pace-bowling quartets in the 1970s and 80s, but only one genuine trio: the Three Ws – Frank Worrell, Everton Weekes and Clyde Walcott – who graced the game from the late 1940s to the late 50s. Across that decade the dismissal of a West Indies opener did not make things easier on opposing bowlers, but considerably harder, with Worrell going in at No 3 and Weekes and Walcott still to come at four and five.
