Daren Sammy Profile

Daren Sammy and the word omission have often gone hand in hand in the last couple of years of his effective international career. Cricketing pundits all wondered about the role he played in the team. Many analysts even pointed out about his lack of ability in captaining a team. However, for a period of time, Sammy managed to sidetrack all the criticism leveled at him with some decent performances in a side that was struggling to stay afloat amongst the giants of cricket.

Sammy became the first cricketer from St. Lucia to play for the West Indies, but he had an odd debut. He had made his debut against New Zealand in 2004 in a match that was washed out. He did not get a chance for the next three years. However, he grabbed the chance with both hands during West Indies’ tour of England in 2007. In the second Test at Old Trafford, Sammy announced himself by claiming 7/66 in the second innings. This was the second best effort by a West Indian on debut since Alf Valentine’s 8/104 in 1950. This was the only bright spot for the Windies in a series where they were trounced 3-0.

Sammy suffered a dip in fortunes with both bat and ball following the England tour. He would bowl with control but lacking penetration. He battered aggressively but failed to be consistent. He created sporadic appearances for the team during the 2008-09 period. But, he was back again in the limelight, this time in the midst of a crisis.

The bitter pay dispute between the players and the board led to them playing an under-strength team for the Bangladesh series. Sammy was chosen as the vice-captain and this was his second life in international cricket. The following years were good for Sammy with both bat and ball. In an ODI match against South Africa, he scored the fastest fifty ever by a West Indian when be blasted 50 off just 20 balls. Following Chris Gayle’s resignation from captaincy, he led West Indies to their first Test win in two years when he picked up 5/29 in the second innings to help them defeat Pakistan by 40 runs. When India toured in June and July the West Indies lost the Test series 1–0, although Sammy led with passion and bowled his heart out, picking up seven wickets in three matches.

Initially, named as captain until the end of the 2011 season, Sammy was retained as the skipper across all formats for the tours of Bangladesh and India. Following on from the Bangladesh series, the West Indies moved on to India in November 2011. West Indies lost the Test series 2–0 and Sammy ended up as his team’s highest wicket-taker with nine. The 2011-12 season saw Sammy improve as a batsman. When West Indies toured England in May 2012, Sammy began the series with scores of 17 and 37 in the first Test at Lord’s, during which he passed 3,000 runs in First-Class cricket. In the following Test, his 26th, Sammy registered his maiden Test century. Sammy partnered Marlon Samuels in a 204-run stand, the second-highest seventh-wicket partnership for the West Indies.

Later in 2012, Sammy guided the team against New Zealand to their first Test series victory since 2009 against a side other than minnows, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe. Sammy led the West Indies in the 2012 T20 World Cup hosted by Sri Lanka. Although, he didn’t exactly do well in the tournament, he turned out to be one of the star performers in the final. Sammy scored 26 not out off 15 balls and took two key wickets to help his team overcome a slow start and defeat Sri Lanka in the final as the West Indies won the 2012 World T20, their first world title since the 1979 World Cup. The following year, Sammy was bought by Hyderabad for the sixth IPL season.

Sammy was severely criticized for his dull captaincy when West Indies toured India in November 2013 for Sachin Tendulkar’s farewell series. West Indies lost both the Test matches in less than three days, exposing their recent slump in Test cricket. The following tour to New Zealand made it even worse for Sammy. After somehow managing to draw the first Test, West Indies lost the next two inside four days. And, that was the time when Sammy decided to call it quits from the longer form of the game. The leadership of the side was then handed over to Denesh Ramdin.

However, there were no doubts regarding his finishing abilities in the limited overs format. With a high back-lift, generating typical Calypso power, Sammy’s strike rates of 101.43 and 148.87 in ODIs and T20Is, respectively, stand testimony to the aforementioned fact. The smiling assassin is also one of the most adored cricketers of the modern game.

His all-round credentials prompted the Hyderabad franchise to bid for him in the 2014 Indian T20 League auctions. Sammy then shone brightly with cameos lower down the order in the 2014 T20 World Cup in Bangladesh, but West Indies failed to mount a successful defense, suffering elimination at the semi-final stage.

In the absence of Dwayne Bravo and Kieron Pollard for the 2015 World Cup, West Indies were left to contend with Sammy’s expertise. They started with a loss to Ireland but then recovered to beat Pakistan before losing to New Zealand in the quarterfinal.

Sammy led Windies to another title, at the 2016 World T20 in India, becoming the only captain to have won the World T20 twice. Following that, the Beauséjour Cricket Ground in St Lucia was renamed to Daren Sammy Cricket Ground in his honour.

Sammy was dropped as Windies’ T20 captain in August later that year, with the management deciding that he did not merit a place in the side. Carlos Brathwaite was named the new T20 leader instead.

Daren Sammy, released by his franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad, was purchased by Kings XI Punjab at the 2017 IPL auctions but he could only join the team halfway into the tournament.

Sammy was a part of World XI’s historic tour of Pakistan, where the teams played each other in 3 T20Is in a bid to revive cricket in the host nation.
