Early and domestic career


Brooks was seen as a cricket prodigy in his teenage years. He played for the West Indies under-19 cricket team in the 2006 Under-19 Cricket World Cup, made his first-class cricket debut for Barbados in 2007 and captained the West Indies in the 2008 Under-19 Cricket World Cup.[3][4] He remained in the Barbados national team for several years, but never realized his full potential and after a particularly bad year in 2012, scoring just 76 runs at an average of 8.44, he was dropped from the national team.[4]

Brooks didn't play another first-class match until 2015,[5] but immediately upon his return he scored his maiden first-class century against the Windward Islands.[4][6] Over the next five years, he scored 3091 runs at an average of 38.63, including five centuries and 20 half-centuries.[4]

Brooks began to make steps towards Test cricket by captaining unofficial Test matches for the West Indies' second team, West Indies A, from 2016. This culminated in the West Indies A series against India A in England in 2018, where he scored 91 in the first match[7] and 121 not out in the second match to finish as the highest run-scorer for the series.[8][9]


Twenty20 franchise cricket


Brooks played for the St Kitts & Nevis Patriots in the Caribbean Premier League, the top-level Twenty20 league in the West Indies, for two seasons in 2016 and 2017. He played 4 matches in each season, and across them both scored 119 runs at an average of 23.80 with a strike-rate of 120.20.[10][11]


International career


In January 2019, Brooks was named in the West Indies' Test squad for their series against England as a reward for his first-class form,[12][13] but he did not play. He then captained West Indies A in another series against India A in July and August 2019. Initially he was only meant to captain the final of three unofficial Test matches, with Kraigg Brathwaite captaining the first two,[14][15] but after an injury to Brathwaite, he stepped in to captain the first two matches as well.[16] Brooks led from the front with half centuries in both of the first two matches,[17][18] He was then again named in the West Indies' Test squad, this time for their series against India.[19][20]

Brooks made his Test debut for the West Indies against India on 22 August 2019.[21] In November 2019, in the one-off Test against Afghanistan, Brooks scored his first century in Test cricket, with 111 runs.[22]

In June 2020, Brooks was named in the West Indies' Test squad, for their series against England.[23] The Test series was originally scheduled to start in May 2020, but was moved back to July 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[24]

In November 2021, Brooks was named in the West Indies' One Day International (ODI) squad for their series against Pakistan.[25] He made his Twenty20 International (T20I) debut on 13 December 2021, for the West Indies against Pakistan.[26] In December 2021, he was named in the West Indies' ODI squad for their series against Ireland.[27] He made his ODI debut on 8 January 2022, for the West Indies against Ireland.[28]

On 4 June 2022, in the third and final match of the series against the Netherlands, Brooks scored his first century in ODI cricket, with 101 not out.[29]
