And if I can add my "two cents", Alban went on to captain East Africa in both cricket and hockey. He was also a hockey coach. Lest we also forget 12th man- the late Armand "Chic" Saldanha who also represented Tanzania and East Africa in hockey. And in Kenya, we had the off-spin bowler -D'Cunha who played for Kenya; but five goans at one time constituted the Uganda cricket team. They included Peter and Charlie D'Souza, and the famous East African all-rounder -Lawrence Fernandes. Although, we did not participate in Test cricket, all three East African teams played against world class teams including the MCC, West Indies, India and Pakistan. I must say that they fared very well given the fact that they were not professionals. Tony Barros.
