Eboni Brathwaite

Eboni Brathwaite is an exceptionally gifted, highly promising young opening batter and right-arm spin option representing the West Indies women’s national cricket team. Born on January 15, 2009, in Barbados, she rapidly emerged as a generational teenage prodigy within the Caribbean development system. Possessing a fearlessly aggressive approach at the crease and crisp stroke-play, Brathwaite consistently dominated the regional pathways, anchoring the West Indies Under-19 team and delivering standout performances for the Barbados women's national team in the domestic CWI Twenty20 Blaze. Her explosive potential and distinct capability to provide fast starts at the top of the order quickly forced her way onto the radar of senior national selectors.

Her rapid ascent culminated in a massive career milestone in early 2026, when she made her formal senior international debut at just 17 years old during the home Twenty20 International (WT20I) series against Sri Lanka at St. George's. Seamlessly transitioning into the senior white-ball environment, she followed that up with a poised, career-best 18 off 17 balls against the reigning world champions, Australia, showcasing her robust big-match temperament against the absolute elite. Backed by an immense developmental ceiling, a proactive batting blueprint, and a modern, high-intent style, Brathwaite is widely regarded as a fundamental cornerstone driving the future of the West Indies' batting unit on the global stage.
