Profile

A solid keeper batter, Merissa Aguilleira made her ODI debut against Netherlands in 2008. Identifying her leadership credentials, the selectors made her the captain the very next year. Under her calm counsel, West Indies enjoyed a great deal of success.

She led West Indies to the World Cup final in India in 2013. She carried on the good work, marshalling her troops to a 2-1 series triumph over Sri Lanka. West Indies also made it to the last four in the T20 Cup in Bangladesh in 2014 but faltered at the semis. Merissa Aguilleira has vowed to come back stronger to break West Indies' knock-outs voodoo.
