Corey Collymore

Born: 21/12/77
Team: Barbados
ODI debut: v India at Toronto, 1999

A useful one-day fast bowler, Collymore was one of the new West Indies quicks that were expected to fill the shoes of Courtney Walsh and Curtly Ambrose.

But a recurrent back injury and stress fractures have prevented him from showing the pace he was renowned for as a youngster.

Collymore has become something of a one-day specialist, although was only called upon once during the World Cup.

He made his bow in the Test arena first, but his appearance against Australia in 1999 remains his only outing.

And despite being a reliable performer, Collymore is yet to be considered a regular starter for his country in the shorter format of the game.

But he remains a definite squad player and will not let anyone down when called on in Australia, a team he is yet to face at one-day level.
