Ian Bishop

Ian Bishop made his Test debut for the West Indies against India in Georgetown in 1989, he was genuinely quick and from a long straight run and orthodox side-on action he generated pace and side-ways movement. From early in his career Bishop was seen by the cricket pundits in the West Indies as an heir to the islands fast bowling dynasty. However his bowling careeer was interupted by serious back injury when in 1991 he was diagnosed with stress fractures of the vertebrae.

Two seperate, serious back injuries may have ended lesser men's career's much earlier. But Ian Bishop underwent intensive rehabilitation, and recovered each time to establish himself as a world class bowler despite a modified  action, which made him more front-on. Despite a lack of control sometimes caused by his remodelled action, he still generated pace and never lost the ability to swing the ball both ways . 

Ian Bishop's potentially outstanding career was severely restricted by two seperate stress fractures of the back. Bishop played his last Test, against England, at kensington Oval in March 1998. After retiring  he has started a career as radio and television commentator, Bishop is currently a Stanford 20/20 legend with responsibilty for team Bahamas.
