Paul Palmer is an accomplished left-hand batter playing for the star-studded Jamaican side in the Caribbean.
He’s been on the domestic circuit since 2013/14, but over the past few years, he’s started to produce the form that saw him nudge West Indies Under-19 selection.
Palmer skippered Jamaica Under-19s for two seasons (2009-10) – guiding his side to the title in his first year, in a side that featured Windies internationals John Campbell, and Jermaine Blackwood.
He went on to skipper the Jamaica XI against the touring New Zealander’s (2014), hitting 52 with an attack featuring Boult, Southee, and Wagner. A few years later, he was again at the help, this time against the England Lions (2018).
Palmer, though, initially broke into professional cricket during the 2013/14 season for the Combined Campuses and Colleges, before earning Jamaican selection in 2015/16.
After a lean run in first-class cricket, hitting 98 runs at 16.33 in his 3 matches, he produced an excellent 2017/18 season, striking 483 runs at 30.18 to include his maiden century (136).
Palmer backed up with another 387 runs the following season, before a barnstorming summer in 2019/20, where he finished as Jamaica’s 4th leading run-scorer (behind internationals Nkruma Bonner, Campbell, and Blackwood), and 12th overall in the WICB Regional 4-Day Tournament hitting 2 centuries amongst 432 runs at 43.20.
As it stands, Palmer has now played 49 first-class matches, scored 2,099 runs at 24.69 with 4 hundreds, and 9 fifites. Given his success, Palmer’s name has been bandied around for national selection, but has yet to break into the Windies set-up.
The punishing left-hander is looking to embark on USA opportunities, to include Major and Minor League stints given he currently resides in America on a Green Card.
