Darren Julius Garvey Sammy has names invoking images
of great leadership. He is the first international cricketer to
emerge from St Lucia, an island rediscovering its cricket culture as
the new Beausejour Stadium has captured imaginations, so it is a
major feat that he has cracked the West Indies squad. Perhaps
because St Lucians have not been as engrossed with cricket as other
West Indians, it has encouraged their players to become allrounders.
Sammy, who spent some time at Lord's with the MCC cricket staff,
also showed off his skills as a batsman and right-arm medium-pacer
as part of the University of the West Indies Vice-Chancellor's XI.
He won a one-day cap in England in 2004 - although there wasn't
actually any play in the match, it counted as the toss was made -
and was called up late to the Champions Trophy squad in September
2004 after Jermaine Lawson pulled out with a stress-fractured back.
