When I was born, Tuesday 25th August 1992, these were the top ranked players in the world:

ODI batsman: Dean Jones (Australia)
ODI bowler: Curtly Ambrose (West Indies)
Test batsman: Graham Gooch (England)
Test bowler: Curtly Ambrose (West Indies)

This was just when the Ambrose-Walsh partnership was taking off.

We were all born at a time where a WIndies player is in the rankings, be it Viv or one of their many bowlers. Will our kids have the same fortune? Doubt it, unfortunately.
