Daren Powell
Daren
Powell is a slimly built right arm fast bowler with
slippery pace and outswing he made his debuted for the West Indies in
2002 against New Zealand. He later confess that he did not
think he was ready for Test cricket at that time even though he managed
two wickets for 41 runs. Powell is capable of bowling in the lower
90's; however injury and inconsistency saw him on the sidelines as a
number of young pacers made it into the West Indies team.
The dispute between players with
Cable & Wireless contracts and the West Indies cricket board,
which resulted in seven players being unavailable for the first Test
against South Africa in 2005 Digicel home series, along
with with 31 wickets at the regional first class level and
gutsy batting down the order, reopened the door for Powell.
Daren Powell was later selected
to tour Sri Lanka for the 2005 away series and the 2006 New Zealand
series. Injury and poor form again saw Powell out of the team for the
2006 Digicel home series against India.
Powell has been in the best form
of
his bowling career going to the 2007 ICC cricket World Cup. A lot is
expected of him in a West Indies bowling attack that is not expected to
bowl teams out in 50 overs.
