Profile

Darren Julius Garvey Sammy has names invoking images of great leadership, and in October 2010 he became the first cricketer from St Lucia to be named West Indies captain. He is in fact the first international cricketer to emerge from St Lucia, an island rediscovering its cricket culture as the new Beausejour Stadium has captured imaginations. Perhaps because St Lucians have not been as engrossed with cricket as other West Indians, Sammy's ascension to the captaincy has encouraged their players to become allrounders. Sammy, who spent some time at Lord's with the MCC cricket staff, also showed off his skills as a batsman and right-arm medium-pacer as part of the University of the West Indies Vice-Chancellor's XI.
