Profile
Nehemiah Perry was an offspinner who played four Tests and 21 ODIs in 1999 and 2000, and is best remembered for his part in West Indies' astonishing 10-wicket victory over Australia, on debut in Jamaica in March 1999. After Brian Lara had smashed 213, Perry followed up with second-innings figures of 5 for 70, including the wickets of Matthew Elliott, Justin Langer, Steve Waugh and Greg Blewett. His career ended in disappointment, however, with figures of 0 for 120 in an innings defeat against New Zealand at Wellington the following winter, and he was forced by a persistent back problem to retire at the end of the 2003-04 season. He later became a selector and, in July 2008, was was named in the national selection selection panel headed by Clyde Butts.
