seymour nurse

seymour macdonald nurse -lrb- born 10 november 1933 -rrb- is a barbadian former cricketer .
nurse played 29 test matches for the west indies between 1960 and 1969 .
a powerfully built right-hand batsman and an aggressive , if somewhat impetuous , shotmaker , nurse preferred to bat in the middle order but was often asked to open the batting .
a relative latecomer to high-level cricket , nurse 's test cricket career came to what many consider a premature end in 1969 .
a member of the famous empire cricket club , nurse 's cricketing mentor was club-mate everton weekes .
he made his first-class cricket debut for barbados in 1958 .
the following year he made a double century for barbados against the touring english and quickly found himself called up for test duties with the west indies .
over the next five years , nurse struggled to establish himself as a permanent fixture in the west indies team .
it was not until the west indies toured england in 1966 that nurse was able to perform consistently at international level .
nurse retired from test cricket at the peak of his powers , having just dominated the new zealand bowlers in a three test series .
his last test innings of 258 is still the highest score by a cricketer in his final test innings .
nurse continued to play at club level and barbados for some years .
he would later manage and coach the barbados team and was the head coach of the barbados national sports council .
he was a wisden cricketer of the year in 1967 .
