Like many cricket legends, Emi's journey began in the small parks of their neighbourhood, evolving over the years into a formidable presence on the international stage.

As a bowler, Emi's arsenal was as unpredictable as it was effective. Their versatile bowling repertoire, a mix of subtle seam movement and deceptive variations, has often left batsmen bemused.
