Vasbert Drakes (born August 5, 1969 in Barbados) is a West Indian cricketer. He is famous for being one of only four batsmen in the history of first-class cricket to be given out timed out. His case was all the more peculiar as he was not even in the country at the time. His plane to South Africa, where the match was being played, had been delayed by several hours. [1]
