Robert Samuels (cricketer)

Robert George Samuels (born 13 March 1971) is a former Jamaican cricketer and coach.

He played, from 1996 to 1997, in six Test matches and eight One Day Internationals for the West Indies cricket team.

In the final Test at Perth, he contributed 76 in a match-winning 208 run partnership with Brian Lara (132).

The high point of his brief ODI career was an unbeaten 36 off 24 balls which helped West Indies to a four wicket win over Australia in Perth.

Coming in at 179 for five, Samuels added 86 for the sixth wicket with Lara (90) to pull of an unlikely victory.
