Sir Clive Lloyd, born in 1944, is a Guyanese-British former cricketer who captained the West Indies cricket team from 1974 to 1985. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest captains of all time and oversaw the West Indies rise to become among the greatest Test and one-day teams of the twentieth century. Under him the West Indies won the 1975 and 1979 Cricket World Cups, with Lloyd scoring a century in 1975, and lost the 1983 final to India. A powerful middle-order batsman, he scored 7,515 Test runs, played for Guyana and Lancashire, and was the first West Indian to earn 100 international caps. He was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame in 2009 and knighted in 2020.
