Meet Jonathan Rampersaud, aspiring cricketer/agricultural engineer

Jonathan Rampersaud

Sixteen year old Jonathan Rampersaud has twin goals that he aspires to reach become a cricketer and an agricultural engineer.

He is preparing to write 11 subjects at the Caribbean Examinations Council’s Secondary Education Certificate while at the same time vying for a spot in the National Under-17 side.

Those goals might be alien to a lot of youngsters but not Rampersaud, a `country boy’ so to speak, who grew up in Berbice an area where farming and cricket are predominant.
