Kingston: Trinidad and Tobago batsman Andy Ganteaume, whose record in Test cricket history is so unique that it is unlikely that it will ever be broken, has passed away peacefully at his home in Santa Margarita on Wednesday.
Ganteaume, who turned 95 last month, had been the oldest Test cricketer alive, but his unique record is this - if the stipulation of minimum 20 matches required is lifted, he has international cricket's highest batting average - 112.
Ganteaume had scored 112 in his only Test innings, against England in Port of Spain in 1948. Unfortunately, he was never selected in the Windies first XI ever again, mainly because they had a formidable batting lineup which was hard to break into - comprising Walcott, Worrell, Weekes, Sobers, Kanhai, Rae, Stollmeyer and Gomez.
His playing career ended without another chance in the international arena, and he played 50 first class games, scoring 2785 runs at an average of 34, with five centuries. He had a penchant for strange records - he can also lay claim to top scoring (9) in the lowest ever innings (16) in Windies first class history.
After retirement, he had been national team manager and selector.
