Career story

Ashmead Nedd career and playing journey

01

Who is Ashmead Nedd?

Ashmead Romano Nedd is a Guyanese cricketer who bowls slow left-arm orthodox spin. He was born on 10 January 2001, bats right-handed and is listed by Cricket West Indies as a specialist bowler and tail-end batter. His senior record spans first-class, List A and T20 cricket rather than international matches for the West Indies senior team.

Nedd's career has moved through West Indies youth cricket, the Emerging Players development side, West Indies Academy, regional teams and Caribbean Premier League franchises. His role is based on control and wicket-taking with left-arm spin. A team association should always carry a season because he has represented Guyana, Leeward Islands, the Academy, Guyana Amazon Warriors and St Kitts & Nevis Patriots at different stages.

02

How old is Ashmead Nedd?

Ashmead Nedd is 25 years old as of 22 August 2026. His date of birth is 10 January 2001, so he turned 25 at the start of the year. ICC's Under-19 media guide and Cricket West Indies' player record both identify the same birth date, helping separate him from players with similar surnames in regional competitions.

He is from Guyana and has represented Guyanese teams, but birthplace and current team answer different questions. His 2026 CPL team is St Kitts & Nevis Patriots, while his recent regional first-class appearances were for Guyana Harpy Eagles. Neither current membership changes the Guyanese identity recorded through his youth pathway.

03

What type of bowler is Ashmead Nedd?

Nedd is a slow left-arm orthodox spinner, a style built around finger spin rather than wrist spin. He is commonly used after the opening bowlers, although match conditions can bring him on earlier. His economy rates show a recurring strength: 2.41 runs per over in first-class cricket and 3.78 in List A cricket at the CWI record cutoff.

Control does not mean he is only a defensive bowler. He has two first-class five-wicket innings, a List A four-for and a T20 four-for. Those returns show that he can convert pressure into wickets. His right-handed batting is a lower-order skill, and his modest run totals do not support describing him as an all-rounder.

04

How did Ashmead Nedd develop through West Indies Under-19 cricket?

Nedd played at the 2018 ICC Under-19 World Cup when he was 17, appearing in five matches. Cricket West Indies later noted that his four maidens were the most by a West Indies bowler at that tournament. He returned to regional youth cricket and worked on the areas exposed by conditions that had not strongly favoured spin.

He earned selection for the 2020 Under-19 World Cup in South Africa after training camps and a home tri-series. The experience made him one of three West Indies players in that squad who had also been involved in the 2018 event. That two-tournament pathway matters because it shows sustained youth development rather than a single short burst of form.

05

What did Ashmead Nedd achieve at the 2020 Under-19 World Cup?

Nedd took 11 wickets at the 2020 Under-19 World Cup, the most for West Indies and tied for 10th across the competition, according to CWI's player spotlight. His economy rate was 3.54. In the quarter-final against New Zealand, he took 3/33 as West Indies defended 238 but lost by two wickets after a late New Zealand partnership.

The tournament figures describe youth internationals, not senior List A or senior international wickets. They remain important because they explain why Nedd was viewed as a leading spin prospect. In the final warm-up phase before the event, he had also taken two wickets against Scotland, while a 2019 tri-series performance of 5/27 against England showed his ability to defend a modest total.

06

How did the 2019 Super50 campaign shape Nedd's career?

Before the 2020 Under-19 World Cup, Nedd played senior regional one-day cricket for West Indies Emerging Players in the 2019 Super50. He took 11 wickets at an average of 10.27 and an economy rate of 3.27. The development side went on to win the competition, beating Leeward Islands Hurricanes by 205 runs in the final.

The title run placed Nedd against experienced domestic players while he was still eligible for youth cricket. CWI highlighted his use of the new ball as a spinner and his role in a spin group that helped the Emerging Players take 66 wickets during the tournament. A direct-hit run-out in the final added a fielding contribution, but his main value across the campaign came from economical left-arm bowling.

07

What are Ashmead Nedd's first-class statistics?

Cricket West Indies records Nedd with 41 wickets from 12 first-class matches through 2025. He bowled 2,807 deliveries, conceded 1,130 runs and held a bowling average of 27.56. His economy rate was 2.41, his strike rate 68.4 balls per wicket, and his record included two five-wicket innings and two four-wicket innings.

With the bat, he had 155 runs from 18 innings at an average of 11.07, with a highest score of 30. The bowling is the central part of his first-class value. The table's 41 wickets already include his 6/78 and other five-wicket haul, so those performances are not added separately when describing his total.

08

What is the story behind Ashmead Nedd's 6/78?

Nedd's best first-class innings figures are 6/78, while his best match return is 7/110. Both came during his period with West Indies Academy, whose 2023 and 2024 first-class programme gave developing players longer-form experience. CWI's career breakdown credits him with 36 wickets from 10 first-class matches for the Academy at 25.77.

The 6/78 should be read as one innings within that broader record. It demonstrates wicket-taking depth, while the match return shows what happened across both innings. Nedd later added 5/97 in a 2024 West Indies Championship match, another example of a long spell producing five wickets even when the innings figures were not his career best.

09

How did Ashmead Nedd move from the Academy to Guyana Harpy Eagles?

West Indies Academy supplied most of Nedd's early first-class experience. CWI then listed him among Academy players selected for territorial Championship squads, with Guyana Harpy Eagles providing a route into his home territory's senior team. His CWI record shows five wickets from two first-class matches for Guyana in 2025, with best innings figures of 4/105.

The team change did not reset his career totals. His Academy and Guyana wickets both sit inside the same 41-wicket first-class record. A 2025 scorecard against Trinidad and Tobago shows him in the Harpy Eagles XI in a drawn match at Queen's Park Oval, which supports the appearance without implying that every match in that season produced a major wicket haul.

10

What are Ashmead Nedd's List A statistics?

Nedd has 39 wickets from 31 List A matches in CWI's current record. He bowled 1,437 balls, conceded 906 runs and held an average of 23.23. His best return is 4/29, with an economy rate of 3.78 and a strike rate of 36.8. Those numbers include his Emerging Players, Leeward Islands and Guyana one-day appearances.

His most efficient team segment came with West Indies Academy and its predecessor development context: 26 wickets from 18 matches at 19.73 in CWI's team breakdown. He later took six wickets for Leeward Islands and seven for Guyana Harpy Eagles. These pieces explain the total but should not be added again once the 39-wicket career figure is stated.

11

What are Ashmead Nedd's T20 and CPL statistics?

CWI records Nedd with 17 wickets from 20 senior T20 matches through 2025. He bowled 395 balls, conceded 481 runs and had a bowling average of 28.29, an economy rate of 7.30 and a strike rate of 23.2. His best figures are 4/25, the only four-wicket innings in that T20 sample.

All 20 of those matches were in the Caribbean Premier League: seven for Guyana Amazon Warriors in 2020 and 2021, followed by 13 for St Kitts & Nevis Patriots from 2023 to 2025. His Patriots record was 14 wickets at 25.14 with an economy rate of 8.18. The earlier 15-match snapshot omitted five later appearances and four wickets.

12

Which CPL team does Ashmead Nedd play for in 2026?

Ashmead Nedd is in the St Kitts & Nevis Patriots squad for CPL 2026. The current roster places him alongside other local players including Johnson Charles, Jason Holder, Kyle Mayers, Andre Fletcher, Kevin Wickham and Obed McCoy. The tournament runs from 7 August to 20 September 2026.

Nedd's role gives the Patriots a left-arm spin option in a squad with several pace and all-round choices. A roster position confirms his team association, but it does not prove that he played every match. Each appearance, over, wicket and result must come from the playing XI and scorecard for that fixture.

13

How did Nedd perform in the 2025 West Indies Breakout League?

CWI's 2025 Breakout League draft placed Nedd with Guyana Rainforest Rangers. The competition was designed for emerging regional players, and the official squad list recorded him as a 24-year-old protected player before the draft. That selection connected his established domestic experience with a new T20 development competition.

Nedd was one of seven players protected by the Rangers before the draft. CWI's eligibility rules limited the competition to players with fewer than 40 senior T20 matches and fewer than 10 T20 internationals, so his selection fitted an emerging-player event rather than a senior international league. The roster is evidence of continued regional involvement, while completed scorecards control any match figures.

14

When was Ashmead Nedd's strongest first-class season?

Nedd's most productive first-class season in the current CWI breakdown was 2023/24. He took 34 wickets from eight matches at an average of 24.41 and an economy rate of 2.37. The season contained both of his first-class five-wicket innings, including the 6/78 career best, as well as another four-wicket return.

That season accounts for most of his 41 career wickets, but it is not the whole record. His first two matches in 2023 produced two wickets, and two Guyana Harpy Eagles appearances in 2024/25 added five more. Splitting the total by season shows where the major progress occurred and avoids presenting a 12-match aggregate as if every year had the same workload or output.

The figures also explain the value of his economy rate. Across 2,101 deliveries in 2023/24, Nedd conceded 830 runs and took a wicket every 61.7 balls. Long red-ball spells reward control, patience and repeatable areas differently from a four-over T20 allocation, so his first-class success should not be judged through his CPL economy alone.

15

How should Ashmead Nedd's career totals be compared?

First-class, List A, T20 and youth records describe different competitions. Nedd has not played a senior Test, ODI or T20I, so his domestic totals should not be labelled as international statistics. His Under-19 World Cup wickets also belong to youth internationals and should remain separate from the 39 senior List A wickets.

Best figures are one performance inside a format total. The 6/78 is included within 41 first-class wickets, the 4/29 within 39 List A wickets and the 4/25 within 17 T20 wickets. Team splits are also parts of the same career total. Keeping those scopes separate prevents a strong milestone from being counted twice or described at the wrong level.
