Great of you Nikhil to have visited the grave of the great man. I had the good fortune of seeing the great man bowl in a one day match in Amar Singh Club in Srinagar, Kashmir against India. Believe me when I say this, he was so quick that I couldn’t even see the ball. All I could see is Malcom Marshal in his run up like a panther. He would bowl, next thing you would see is Jeffrey Dujon passing the ball to 1st slip. Nothing in between. India lost badly. I remember Sunil Gavaskar saying after the match that ‘ He has never seen leather travel so fast ever in his life’. Too bad he died so young of Colon Cancer. RIP!

Malcolm Marshall - a bowler we, in India, loved to hate in 80's! Nikhil, it wasn't just the speed and fear he instilled in batsmen but Marshall's career average of 20.94, over 81 tests, is a tribute to his supreme quality and consistency. You might want to add that to your video.

Just a name Malcolm Marshall put a cold sweat down the spines of every batsman in the 1980s. He basically carried the torch for the entire West Indian team from the Holding, Garner, Roberts era to the Ambrose/Walsh era. To me he was the greatest.

As a child I used to hate this man, especially when after the windies would score 400 + and on the second day evening Marshall would reduce us to 35 for 5. This was in the mid 80s. But over the years as I have grown out of my childhood and seen much more cricket, I say with a heavy heart that we have missed his presence dearly. Agree he is the GOAT of all the fast bowlers. RIP.

Marshall was the fastest and certainly scariest even for the fans. Imagine the batsmen those days! I still remember (as a school kid) seeing him field at a boundary closest to me as a spectator in a Madras Test match in late '70s. I was in awe of this man. 🎉

I had a friend who played in the same subdistricts team Moorabbin in Melbourne with Malcolm Marshall. My friend passed away at 42 from cancer about the same age as Marshall. I asked my friend what it was like as a low-grade amateur facing Marshall as a teammate in the nets. He said he didn’t slow down and hit me all over my body.

I saw Malcolm during one day international at Indore when WI visited India just after 1983 world cup. He was lighting fast. I remember he bowling to Sunil gavaskar, with Jeff Dujon wicket keeper standing more than half way towards the boundary line, collecting the ball just above his chest. Imagine that kind of bounce and pace on our placid tracks. Awesome ferocious pace ..

A great tribute to one of the greatest bowlers in history. He played during my younger years, cannot forget the bowling quartet of the WIndies. Malcolm Marshall stood out with his short run-up and quick bowling...but there is no way he was 5-11. He was a short guy, at the max he was 5-7. IMO even shorter than that.

Australia - Nov '84 to Dec '84: 5/82; 5/69; 5/38 and 5/86. These figures were in a line-up of Holding, Garner and Walsh show how devastating he was. Single-handedly ended the careers of Dyson, Hughes, Phillips and Yallop.

🫡 the greatest fast bowler ever. 33 wickets in India in 1983- won the series, 35 wickets in England 1988- won the series , 27 wickets in Australia in 1988- won the series, won two test matches in Pakistan . All test matches.

Sad thing is such great cricketer died poor. These days, a lot of players are earning a few millions every year thanks to franchise cricket all around the world. Some of the West Indies players like Chris Gayle, Andrea Russell are example. Those days players could only play under their board and salaries were minimal.

If passion had a name it has to be Marshall. If bowling had a name it has to be Marshall. If WI cricket had a name it has to be Marshall. He was an absolute nightmare for batsmen as he terrorised & demonised batsmen all over the world 🗺 Not surprisingly he's known as Malcolm "Terror" Marshall ❤

Greatest fast bowler of all time . He picked some tricks from Lilee but Marshal honed the skills even better than Lilee although Marshal acknowledged Lilee's contribution. All other fast bowlers of yesteryears like Akram, Waqar were peanuts compared to WI bowlers. Also his wicket count would have been much more if WI did not have almost similar deadly bowlers during his time like Holding, Roberts and Garner or later Ambrose. Hail WI fast bowlers. Sad that WI cricket and real flair has diminished beyond belief. on a scale of one to 10 for fast bowlers Malcom is from one to ten. All others start after. such was the difference high pace and control with smooth runup without jump. MArshal was so fearful that Gavaskar started wearing Helmet . Used Skull cap which is a variation of Helmet. In KAnpur Test Gavaskar was so afraid of Marshal that he threw the bat while countering him.
