Fabian Allen 🏏

Fabian Allen first grabbed attention during the 2017 Caribbean Premier League with a stunning catch at deep point that went viral on YouTube. He had already started his career strongly, scoring three consecutive half-centuries after making his first-class debut for Jamaica in the 2016-17 season.

In the following season, Allen continued to impress with two centuries, including a career-best unbeaten 169 against Trinidad and Tobago. His wide range of shots and evident potential had marked him as a special talent since 2014, when he played in the West Indies Under-19 World Cup squad. He was picked by the St. Lucia Stars for the 2017 Caribbean Premier League and later represented Cricket West Indies ‘B’ in the inaugural Global T20 League in Canada.

A true gem for Caribbean cricket, Allen has the potential to become a major star if his talent is nurtured and used wisely, unlike some recent prospects from the islands. If he keeps developing at his current pace, big things can be expected from this versatile all-rounder
