Not a genuine quick, but fairly accurate and
aggressive as a right-arm fast-medium bowler. Corey Collymore's
sprint to the crease is reminiscent of Malcolm Marshall's, but,
unlike Marshall, his open-chested deliveries seem to limit his
ability to move the ball away from the right-hander. His misfortune
has been the plague of modern fast bowlers: stress fractures. Yet he
is a determined man, who recovered from back injuries when critics
had written him off at the end of West Indies' tour of England in
2000, and thus fulfilled his promise to be back in the game. He took
four wickets on his return to the one-day side in Zimbabwe in 2001,
as West Indies beat India in the final of the Coca-Cola Cup, and
after a moderately successful World Cup in 2003, he was recalled to
the Test team for the home series against Sri Lanka. He responded
with five wickets in the drawn first Test, and a second-innings haul
of 7 for 57 in the second, as West Indies sealed a seven-wicket
victory. From there on, he was shunted in and out of the squad,
before being included half-way through the Test series for his
experience. He shared the new ball with younger speed merchants, and
though he put the ball in the right place, his inability to put fear
in the hearts of batsmen meant that he was expensive and ineffective
on the tour to England.
