WEST Indies and Trinidad and Tobago fastbowler Mervyn Dillon and Windward
Islands' pacer Fernix Thomas were spending time at the University Hospital
of the West Indies (UHWI) last night after being struck by lightning during
a rained-out Red Stripe Bowl limited overs cricket match at Kensington Park
in east Kingston yesterday.

The Trinidadians had battled to 111-7 at the start of the 39th over in hot
sunshine but with storm clouds gathering, when lightning streaks lit up the
sky and appeared to flash across the field. The lightning was followed by a
huge thunder clap, later described by Trinidad and Tobago coach, Tony Gray,
as "the loudest noise I have ever heard".
