Amit Sheldon Jaggernauth (born 16 November 1983) is a former West Indian cricketer known for his skill as an off spinner.
[1] In recent years, Jaggernauth has been one of the most consistent wicket-takers in the Carib Beer Cup, the West Indies domestic first-class competition.
[2] Despite this consistency, he was overlooked by the West Indies selectors for several years as they chose to stick with a four-pronged pace attack and part-time spinners.
[3] However, in March 2008, he was finally called up to the West Indies Test squad for the series against Sri Lanka although he missed out on a place in the team for the first Test, with the selectors opting for the left-arm orthodox spinner Sulieman Benn instead.
He had to wait until 22 May 2008 for his Test debut which took place at Sabina Park, Kingston, Jamaica against Australia.
