DHAKA, Bangladesh (CMC) – West Indies One Day International (ODI) captain Dwayne Bravo says he was stunned by the passing of promising youth cricketer Tevin Robertson, who died in a car crash over the weekend.Robertson, 19, died instantly after his car crashed into a fence early Saturday morning in Trinidad’s southern town of Gasparillo.
“I knew him as a young boy around the Trinidad & Tobago national team. He was very friendly, very polite, and had a good work ethic and it is just sad to hear he is gone,” said Bravo.
“When I got the news I was stunned. He had a bright future ahead of him. He was a talented young bowler and we all had high hopes for him.”
Robertson was a left-arm fast bowler who had played for the T&T U-19s at the regional tournament in Barbados last year.
He was also part of a training camp for the T&T squad and represented Powergen and Moosai Sports in the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board club competitions.
