We have had some fantastic overseas players but for me Jeets is easily the best.

OK at the end of next season he will complete 10 years absolutely brilliant seasons. A great servant to Warwickshire cricket.For me though the greatest overseas player, who came to us as a very naive, humble lad and turned into one of the most ferocious fast bowlers ever to grace acricket ground let alone Edgbaston...our own 'White Lightning'..Allan Donald...completed 13 years service and gave us everything.Not that Jeetan hasn't.
RIP Bob Willis, club (and England) legend.
Very sad news today. It is correct to describe Bob as true England and Warwick legend. The 8-43 at Headingly is one of most stand out bowling performances in the history of Test cricket and like others have said it is often treated as a side issue to Botham's effort. That's neither fair nor correct. Due to lack of runs to play with that day he had to be absolutely perfect that day and he was. As a commentator/pundit he was candid with his input often critical but never destructive. He did not sit on the fence like many ex-pro pundits do always favouring and finding excuses for their "mates". RIP Bob you have left us too soon.
