Shunelle Sawh was born on New Year’s Day in 2004 in the sun-drenched Caribbean, where cricket is as much a part of life as the azure waves that lap the shores. Growing up in the cricket-rich landscape of the West Indies, Shunelle’s early years were defined by days spent on grassy pitches and the crack of leather on willow. From a tender age, she demonstrated an extraordinary aptitude for bowling, her natural rhythm echoing that of the cricketing legends who had trodden these paths before her.

Her journey through the ranks was meteoric. Shunelle was spotted by local scouts during an under-15 regional tournament, where her pace and precision left an indelible mark. By 18, she was representing her island nation in domestic leagues, effortlessly dismantling seasoned batters with her versatile bowling skills. Her professional debut came in 2023, a year that announced her on the international stage with a debut tour that saw her taking a dazzling five-wicket haul against one of the toughest sides in the Southern Hemisphere.

Her batting, often sidelined, has proven crucial in nail-biting finishes. In one unforgettable match against regional rivals, her quick-fire 30 runs snatched victory from certain defeat, highlighting her adaptable approach and resilience under pressure.

Throughout her career, her fierce rivalry with a neighbouring island's star batter became the stuff of legend, with matches often billed as the ultimate showdown. These contests drew fans in droves, eager to witness Shunelle’s strategic duels on the field.
