Cozier was the last of the WI great commentators/Cricket historian. A great ambassador for WI cricket. He will be missed by fans across the world, not just in the WI.

A true legend! RIP Coz!

'The West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) on Wednesday paid tribute to cricket writer and commentator Tony Cozier, describing him as the “voice of West Indies cricket”. Cozier, who had been ailing for some time, died Wednesday morning in Barbados. He was 75. “On behalf the WICB and the various stakeholders in West Indies Cricket we offer sincere condolences to his wife Jillian, his son Craig, his daughter Natalie, his grandchildren and other family and friends,” a WICB media release said.'

Sad news. Cricket came to me late after a trip to Grenada. Tony was a big part of my learning. Never considered that I'd never hear him live again. Rest well.

Return of West Indies’ swagger would have delighted Tony Cozier
