Rahkeem Cornwall has only played three Test matches but if he gets to have things go his way, he will be playing a lot more before he puts his bat away for good.
The gigantic 27-year-old Antiguan all-rounder is currently playing for the St Lucia Zouks in the 2020 Hero CPL and it is an opportunity to perhaps get his foot in the door of the international franchises that have signed many of his Caribbean colleagues, who have flourished.
However, his primary focus is on becoming a permanent fixture in the West Indies senior Test side.
“If I can play the T20 format and travel the world and play leagues it would be good but my aim is to be one of the most successful Test players out there,” Cornwall said in a recent interview.
“Playing Test cricket is the art of cricket, everyone wants to play Test cricket and do well. I have already played the format; I just want to make sure I get what I am really looking for in Test cricket and when my times comes to retire, I don’t have any regrets.”
In the three Tests he has played, Cornwall has taken 13 wickets. (www.sportsmax.tv)
