   • Early life: Roberts was born to a fisherman’s family as one amongst the 14 children. He grew up in Urlings Village in Antigua, where he never played a cricket match till the age of 16.
   • The break: Roberts took up cricket quite late in life. When he was 18, he got his first big break as he was picked for the Leeward Islands side. Incidentally, he used to work as a salesman for a beverage company ‘Fruity’ back then, besides helping his father haul back his day’s catch.
   • Coaching: This is interesting! For a bowler who got so much success in his life, it is hard to believe that he took coaching for merely six weeks during his entire career.
   • First Antiguan to play for West Indies: Roberts was the first player from Antigua to represent the West Indies team. His inclusion into the team pave the way for other Antiguans, as he was followed by Richards, Eldine Baptiste, Richie Richardson, Winston and Kenny Benjamin, Dave and Sylvester Joseph, Curtly Ambrose, Ridley Jacobs and Gavin Tonge in years to come.
