5 young Windies cricketers who should be persisted with

#1 Shai Hope

Shai Hope is deemed to be the next big thing in Windies cricket

One of the best moments in the Windies cricket came recently when they defeated England in the Headingley Test. Shai Hope was adjourned the man of the match in that game for his match winning twin centuries. In fact, he turned out to be the first batsman to have scored two centuries in the same Test match at Headingley in its 127-year long first-class cricket history.

Hope is a batsman with quality attributes. He is calm, collected, and has a decent technique. He made his Test debut against England in 2015 and ODI debut against Sri Lanka in 2016. The man from Barbados has caught everyone's attention with his talent and is deemed to be the next big thing in Windies cricket.

The 23-year-old certainly has a long way to go in his career and if properly groomed, can prove to be a force to reckon with.
