Colin Everton Hunte Croft (born March 15, 1953 in Demerara, British Guiana) was a West Indian cricketer. He was part of the fearsome quartet of fast bowlers from the late 70s and early 80s. With his giant frame of 6 foot 6, he bowled nasty bouncers and was very aggressive. His figures of 8/29 against Pakistan in 1977 are still the best Test figures by a genuine fast bowler from the West Indies. His career ended when he went to the rebel tour of South Africa in 1982.
