Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
It could have been a flash in the pan or one of those days when you are the better against the opposition. But Williams, albeit in flashes, in West Indian colours has delivered in crunch moments.
Born in St Vincent and the Grenadines, Williams, who made his first-class debut for Windward Islands in March 2011 against an England Lions side, typified the Caribbean flair in his bowling, but could play no more than a solitary first-class game for the team before spending almost two years in the wilderness. When he made a comeback to top-flight cricket in 2012-13, it was for Combined Campuses and Colleges and helped the team reach the final of the Regional Super 50 List A competition, only to lose to his old team Windward Islands in the summit clash. However, his appearances for the team in the next season became almost negligible before he went out of first-class cricket for another couple of years.
His actual claim to fame came in the 2016 Caribbean Premier League, in which he topped the bowling tally for Jamaica Tallawahs after picking up 17 wickets; was the third highest wicket-taker of the tournament as well. The performance led to international call-up soon as Andre Russell pulled himself out of the series against Pakistan. Kesrick was selected as a replacement for the flashy all-rounder.
The then 26-year-old left an immediate impression as he managed to grab figures of 2/15 on debut in the third and final T20I of the series. Towards the end of 2016, he secured a contract with Rajshahi Kings in the Bangladesh Premier League and was at the forefront of the team finishing runners-up in the league. Apart from his performances, his ‘selfiebration’ run and the ‘page flipper’ celebration after picking a wicket made him an instant hit among the fans.
His may not have been a career that is one like the meteoric stories of his many fellow compatriots, but his is surely one that is on right track to grow leaps and bounds. Or at least, the promise that he is building up in the last two years says so.
Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Born in St Vincent and the Grenadines, fast bowler Kesrick Williams made his first-class debut for Windward Islands in March 2011 at the age of 21, against an England Lions side that included Chris Woakes, Jonny Bairstow and Adil Rashid. He played only one more first-class game for Windward Islands before spending nearly two years out of top-flight domestic cricket.
Williams made a comeback in the 2012-13 season, turning out for Combined Campuses and Colleges. In his first season for CCC, he was part of a team that reached the final of the Regional Super50 List A competition, losing to his former team Windward Islands in the title clash. He took 14 wickets across formats in 2012-13 for CCC. The following season, however, Williams' appearances for CCC were sporadic - he played only two List A and three first-class matches - and he ended up spending another two seasons away from domestic cricket in the West Indies.
His comeback, and the eventual route to his first call-up for West Indies, came through the 2016 Caribbean Premier League. Williams was picked by Jamaica Tallawahs in the 13th round of the draft for $5000 and became a player of immense value for the side. He took 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.
In September that year, Williams was called up to the West Indies T20I squad for the series against Pakistan in the UAE, after Andre Russell withdrew due to personal reasons.
