AFTER SIX seasons of the Cricket West Indies (CWI) Professional Cricket League (PCL) First-class Championship, left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican is by far the most successful Barbados Pride bowler.

A current Test player, Warrican has turned out in the most matches (45) for the new champions, taking 183 wickets from 1343.2 overs including 369 maidens, at an average of 18.66.

His most productive season was in 2014-15 when he hauled in 49 scalps including five five-wicket hauls and one ten-wicket match haul, at 14.97 runs each.

In 2018-19, Warrican boasted of his best ever figures – eight for 45 off 25.4 overs including nine maidens in the first innings, ironically against Windward Islands Volcanoes at Arnos Vale in Kingstown, St Vincent – the country of his birth.
