Guyana-born Canadian cricketer, Jeremy Gordon, has credited his latest season in the Toronto and District Super 9 as a “coming of age” run for him.
Gordon, a 32-year-old seamer hailing from New Amsterdam, Berbice, was instrumental throughout the tournament for the Vikings where he picked up 30 wickets in the competition, including 2-46 in the final when he struck both times in his first over to set the foundation for a successful title defense for Vikings.
“This season is a coming-of-age season for myself,” Gordon told Stabroek Sport, noting that he did a lot of work in the pre-season during the winter period which he credits for helping him achieve his goal. Gordon revealed that he had set the benchmark of taking 30 wickets in the competition and was so dedicated and determined to achieve his ambitions that he went so far as to hire a personal coach.
