When young Essequibo fast medium all-rounder Keemo Paul destroyed the Windward Islands on debut in April earlier this year at the Providence National Stadium with match figures of 9 for 64, the former West Indies U19 vice-captain had eclipsed the previous record by a Guyanese fast or medium fast bowler at the Regional First Class Level.
Paul’s magnificent performance bettered the previous best of 9 for 75 which was achieved by Berbice fast bowler Leslaine Lambert against Trinidad and Tobago at the Albion Sports Complex Ground in February of 1983.
Inspired by that debut performance against the Windwards, Paul continued his Providence show with another nine-wicket match haul against the Barbados Pride in the just concluded fifth round of the Cricket West Indies (CWI) Regional four day competition.
