 Profile

A tall left-arm spinner and a useful lower-order batsman, Suliemann Benn was part of the West Indies B side before becoming a regular for Barbados. He had impressive returns in his second and third seasons in first-class cricket, picking up 32 and 24 wickets respectively. He topped the wicket charts for Barbados with 22 wickets in the 2007-08 Carib Beer Series and was rewarded with a call-up to the Test squad in the home series against Sri Lanka. He has been a key member of the regional one-day side, thanks to his economical bowling.
