THREE former West Indies cricketers took their legendary status to another level after being knighted in a special ceremony in Antigua.

Curtly Ambrose and Andy Roberts, both brilliant exponents of pace bowling during West Indies cricket's golden era, received the honour along with former Test captain Richie Richardson during the innings break of England's first one-day international against West Indies.

The hosts won the match by 15 runs after a familiar batting collapse by England.

But perhaps the biggest cheers of the day were reserved for the trio receiving their knighthoods, all of whom hailed from the tiny island of less than 100,000 people.

The only previous Antiguan to receive a knighthood was the master blaster Sir Viv Richards, although the latest ceremony brings the total number of West Indies cricket knights to 11.

Both Roberts and Ambrose have already been inducted into the International Cricket Council's Hall of Fame.
