Left-arm spinner, Veerasammy Permaul, continues to push the boundaries as he became the first bowler to take 500 first-class wickets playing for Guyana, a record he said he never imagined in his wildest dreams of attaining.
Playing in his 130th first-class match, the 33-year-old removed Barbados Pride’s Keon Harding to reach the landmark in the first round of the West Indies Championships in Antigua last week.
He now sits on 574 first-class wickets, although 31 of those has come from Test cricket where he has played nine matches for the West Indies during his decade-old career.
