  Malcolm Marshall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Malcolm Denzil Marshall (April 18, 1958 - November 4, 1999) was a West Indian cricketer, regarded as one of the finest fast bowlers ever to have played Test cricket; some have suggested he was the finest of all.
Marshall really came to prominence in 1980, when in the third Test at Old Trafford he accounted for Mike Gatting, Brian Rose and Peter Willey in short order to spark an England collapse, although the match was eventually drawn.
By 1984 Marshall was indisputably one of the finest bowlers in the world, and he demoralised England that summer, especially at Headingley, where he ran through the order in the second innings to finish with 7-53, despite having broken his thumb whilst fielding in the first innings.

 Marshall-ing the troops! - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM
Marshall, a stylishly compact right-handed opener, who was the leading West Indian batsman at the Under-19 World Cup in Bangladesh earlier this year, dominated the Leewards in making 101 as Jamaica, having being sent in, rushed to 287-7 in their 50 overs.
But it could have all gone sadly wrong for the 18 year-old Marshall and Jamaica, since he edged the first ball of the match, from pacer Ian Byron, only to see the straightforward catch put down at slip.
The loss of Marshall at 197-3, caught at long off, slowed the run-rate, but the elegant right-handed Wayne Morgan, batting at number seven, stroked a superb 44 off 30 balls with five fours, to push Jamaica past 280 and surely earn a promotion in the batting order.
