About Winston Davis

Winston Walter Davis is a West Indian former cricketer. He was a part of the West Indian squad which finished as runners-up at the 1983 Cricket World Cup. It proved a shrewd choice as Davis took 20 first-class wickets at 19.50 in just five matches. In 1978 he went to England for the return matches, but it was not until 1979/80 that he made his first-class debut, for Windward Islands against Leeward Islands at St John's.
