1960 – Gus Logie, The Little West Indian Fighter
The 5’4” Gus Logie was a master of counterattacking knocks and a fearless short-leg fielder. Often reviving West Indies’ innings from crisis, his fighting partnerships – like the ones with Jeff Dujon at Lord’s in 1988 and Trinidad in 1990 – remain etched in memory. After 2470 runs at 35.79, Logie transitioned into coaching, guiding teams like Canada, Bermuda, and even his own West Indies.
