Collis King would be best remembered for being the batsman at the other end as Viv Richards blazed away in the 1979 World Cup Final at Lord's. It's more than a quarter of a century since he last played for the West Indies, and he's now in his fifties, but last weekend he turned up in central Queensland for a seven-a-side cricket competition.
ABC Local Radio in Wide Bay has a story on their website about the 22nd annual seven-a-side cricket carnival at Mundubbera. King was captain of a team called the Nixon Nuffies.
He can be heard on the audio report which accompanies the ABC story.
