After spending initial days in poverty, he played for Trinidad and Tobago U-19 team in 2005 and got a call from the West Indies Under-19 team. In IPL 2010, the medium-pacer was bought by the Mumbai Indians. He performed well in the debut season while he could not give his best in the next two seasons.
