Tino Best brought qualities to the West Indies bowling attack that were missing for too long. Aggressive, confident and energetic, the 5 feet 8 inches Best carries the fight to the very end. He topped the regional averages in 2003 and was selected for the third Test at home to Australia in May 2003, although he didn't take a wicket. Temperamentally, he has been likened to his fellow Barbadian, the great Wes Hall, especially in his exuberance and speed. Clocking in as fast as 92mph, Best found it hard to learn control - physically and mentally. He was last picked for a one-day series in May 2006 against Zimbabwe at home. In February 2008, Best, frustrated at not receiving a West Indies contract, signed up for the ICL.
