2017 HERO Caribbean Premier League - St Lucia Stars v Jamaica Tallawahs

Having made his first class debut at the age of 21, Kesrick Williams faced an uphill struggle to cement his place in the starting eleven of any team he played on. After six years of perfecting his trade, the 2016 CPL tournament served as his platform where Williams reinvented himself as a destructive pace bowler holding a fine economy rate.

Williams endured a strong season under the Jamaican Tallawahs picking up 17 wickets at an average of 19.82 and an economy rate of 8.02 to finish as the most successful bowler for Tallawahs and the third highest wicket-taker in the 2016 edition.

Continuing his brilliant form into the 2017 edition, Williams amassed 13 wickets this campaign with a string of good early performances gaining attention from numerous teams, across leagues interested in acquiring his services.
