Another Simmons poised to steal the limelight

Keagan Simmons in full flow.
He was the backbone of Cane Farm cricket club’s effort this season, as they won the North/East Championship league and 50 overs titles and his continued dominance at the Interzone level, has given optimism that Keagan Simmons will be yet another Simmons to do well for this country in the future.

The left hander has been in great form this season and has gotten great inspiration from his family members who have played at the highest level of the game. His great uncle Phil Simmons is the coach of the West Indies senior team, after having played Test and ODI cricket for the regional side. His uncle Lendl also played Test cricket for the West Indies before retiring from the format last year. He still plays ODI and T20 cricket for the West Indies and just yesterday stroked 65 to take his IPL club Mumbai Indians into the finals of the IPL T20 tournament.

The left hander started off the year with excellent scores in youth interzone cricket and from this point the selectors started looking in his direction. He counted scores of  18, 50, 80 and 43 at the Interzone Under-19 level for East Zone and then followed up with scores off 49, 130 not out, seven and 84 not out.

He then made a hundred against Hillview College in an Under-16 East Zone final and although he hardly batted for Trinity East College at the under-19 level, he did slam 50 against Fatima in the semi-finals of the Intercol T20 series.

However, the 16-year- old opener caught the eye at the club level playing for Cane Farm in the North/East Championship. He starred at the top of the order, getting 284 runs in seven innings for his club.

He is sure to play a part for North in the North/South Classic that has returned after years. The young man speaking to T&T Guardian said: “I just love batting and I work hard on my game. Whenever there is an opportunity to play the game, I grab it because I want to improve. I have gotten great support from my family, especially Lendl and also my teammates at Cane Farm and I am looking to work hard and repay the faith they all have in me.”
