A wicketkeeper batsmen who had the CPL season of his life amassed a massive 458 runs in 12 innings with 3 fifties maintaining a steady boundary hitting frequency in every inning.

An opening orthodox batsman for most of his career not known for his explosive hitting, certainly made his mark this season catching many an eye of foreign suitors looking to acquire his services.

The 31-year-old has featured for the West Indies before as a replacement to the squad on strike against Bangladesh, where he equalled the record for the most dismissals in game.

With an outside chance to be picked by an IPL side, he could act well as a surprise pick given his recent explosion of sorts with the bat and serve as a solid wicketkeeper, boosting his chances.
