Though he made his first-class debut at the age of 19 in 2002-03, fast bowler Gavin Tonge only came into the limelight in the 2008-09 domestic season, where he picked up 44 wickets at 25.09. He earned a place in the ODI squad for the series against Bangladesh in the wake of the contracts crisis involving the West Indies board and its players. He had an indifferent series, finishing wicketless and conceding 108 runs in two games though the only Twenty20 international between the teams produced a better performance. More will be expected of him after his selection for the ICC Champions Trophy.
