England v West Indies: Darren Sammy hopes Lord's will work its magic on himself and his young team I am the captain, I just do what I do. I fully understand my role in this team as a bowler and as a lower-order batsman. When I bowl my job is to keep pressure on and that's what I do, go at 2.6 runs per over and hopefully I can get some wickets in between and create pressure so the man bowling at the other end can get wickets as well. The majesty of a Lord's Test can intimidate inexperienced cricketers but Sammy is relishing his return to the place where he served his cricketing apprenticeship for three years 2003. During that period he was often a net bowler to Strauss as he prepared to make his England debut in 2004. "My time here exposed me to a whole new professional attitude towards cricket and I think that's something that has stuck with me," Sammy said. Coming back here is a wonderful feeling and so will be leading out the West Indies team. We are all thrilled. Not only me, but all our boys, especially [Darren] Bravo. He came here as a teenager for Trinidad and they told him he couldn't go on the grass. "But when nobody was looking he stepped on the field took some grass and put it in his pocket and said he was going to plant it in his back yard and call it "Lord's." But by the time he got to the Caribbean all the grass was brown. It's going to be a very special occasion for the West Indies team and hopefully we could use that as motivation to go out there and play well. Kemar Roach has recovered from an ankle injury and Sammy, who did not play in the warm-up matches as he recovered from a hectic few weeks, claimed he was match fit from bowling in the nets. His side will feature four seam bowlers, which means there will probably be no place for Shane Shillingford, who recently became the first West Indies spinner to take a Test 10-wicket haul since Lance Gibbs in the 1960s. There's been a lot of discussion in the dressing room about who's going to put their name on the honours board. Kemar said he's going to be the first one, Ravi [Rampaul] said it's going be him and I myself think it's going to be me. Bravo is itching to get his name on the board and the young players as well. There's a lot of inspiration that can be taken from Lord's, it's the spiritual place of cricket so hopefully magical things can happen for us.
