Another Caribbean player to feature in the Under-rated XI is Kemar Roach. The right-arm fast bowler hailing from Barbados has a lot of variations to his disposal both with the new ball and in the death overs. Kemar generates tremendous pace and has the ability to rattle the opposition batters by bowling toe-crushing yorkers.

The speed merchant made his debut for West Indies in 2009 in a Test fixture against Bangladesh. The 32-year-old has stunning records in both Tests and ODIs but it won’t be wrong to say that he is one of the most under-rated fast bowlers of recent times. 

Despite picking 214 scalps in just 63 Test matches at an economy rate of 3.09 and an average of 27.7, Roach isn’t counted as one of the best fast bowlers. The right-hander has also featured in 92 One Day Internationals picking 124 wickets at an economy rate of 5.06 and an average of 30.3.
