Born in New Amsterdam Berbice on January 20, former Guyana First-Class fast bowler
Jeremy Gordon, who now resides in Canada, is the lone Guyanese in the ICC Americas One-Day team which will play in Zone ‘A’ of the WICB’s NAGICO Regional Super50 in Trinidad which starts on January 7 next year.
The 28-year-old who played for Bermine in Berbice first division cricket was selected on Wednesday as the only bowler from Canada to make the team which will travel to the West Indies. The team was selected after two-phase trial matches with the second phase of the ICC Americas cricket combine ending last month in Indianapolis.
Gordon, who played for Canada in the 2014 ICC World Cup qualifiers, made his First-class debut for Guyana against the Leewards in Albion in 2007 in his home County and played the last of his five First-Class games in King City in 2013 when Canada beat the Netherlands by eight wickets.
The former Guyana youth team pacer has six wickets from five One-Day International for Canada and 9 wickets from 10 List A games. The Berbician made his t20 debut in Barbados for Canada against Guyana in the 2012 Regional 50-over competition.
Gordon, who migrated to Toronto, Canada where he is employed as a technical Support Analyst, still harbors thoughts of returning to his homeland and regain his place in Guyana’s team.
Gordon returned last year and bowled with pace in a few practice sessions but the team was already selected.
