5 former West Indies batsmen who would've done well in T20 Cricket

#3 Gordon Greenidge

Gordon Greenidge was a destructive opening batsman

A destructive opening batsman, the man from Barbados was one of the feared opening batsmen during his time and with Desmond Haynes, the duo was a nightmare to any bowling attacks.

Greenidge made his Test debut against India in 1974 at Bangalore. He made a century in his debut innings and followed it up with a 90 in the 2nd. His whirlwind 214 against England on the final day of a Test match in Lord’s enabled West Indies to chase down a mammoth 342 on the final day. This is still the record 4th innings winning total at Lord’s.

To go with his outstanding Test career, Greenidge was a destructive ODI batsman and gave West Indies a flying start on most occasions. Greenidge scored his first ODI century against India in the 1979 World Cup and followed it up with 10 more before calling an end to his career.

Greenidge finished his ODI career with 5,134 runs at an impressive average of 45.03. He would have been a handy top order batsman if he had played the T20 format.
