Akeal Jerome Hosein is a talented cricketer from the West Indies who has made a significant impact in both domestic and international cricket.
Born on February 25, 1993, in Trinidad and Tobago, Hosein has carved a niche for himself as a skilled white-ball spinner, while also displaying his prowess in red-ball cricket.

Hosein's journey in cricket began at an early age, and he quickly rose through the ranks due to his immense talent and determination.
As a young player, he had the opportunity to showcase his skills in the prestigious Champions League T20 tournament.
Representing the Barbados Tridents, Hosein made an impression by scalping three wickets in three games.
This early success served as a stepping stone for his future endeavors.

In the regional four-day competition of 2019-20, Hosein truly showcased his red-ball capabilities.
Representing Trinidad and Tobago, he proved to be a formidable force with his left-arm spin, picking up an impressive tally of 36 wickets.
Additionally, he also contributed with valuable runs from the lower-middle order, displaying his all-round abilities.

However, it was in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL) that Hosein truly shone.
His exceptional performances in the tournament allowed the Trinbago Knight Riders to lift the trophy in the 2020 edition.
Throughout the season, he grabbed 10 wickets and exhibited immense composure and control in his bowling.
His ability to maintain a tight line and length not only frustrated batsmen but also resulted in crucial breakthroughs for his team.

In early 2021, Hosein was handed an opportunity to represent the West Indies in Bangladesh.
This chance came about after several senior players opted out of the tour, allowing the young spinner to make his mark on the international stage.
Hosein's selection was a testament to his consistent performances in domestic cricket and his potential to excel at the highest level.

Hosein's style of play is characterized by his accurate and intelligent spin bowling.
