Kemar Roach is an extremely talented quick bowler, hailing from the land of the great fast bowlers, Barbados. He isn't tall, but with a quick arm action generates tremendous pace. He has a mean yorker and made his Test debut against Bangladesh in 2009 when the WIPA went on a strike over pay disputes which led to the selectors picking a B team.
However, it was during the series in Australia that Roach made his name. By bowling quick and with hostility, he peppered Ricky Ponting with short balls and forced him to retire hurt after hitting him on the elbow in the third Test at WACA. With that spell Roach announced himself to the world and Ponting was never the same batsman again. Before making his international debut, Roach represented the West Indies at Under-19 level, participating in the 2006 World Cup.
