Career story
Obed Christopher McCoy was born in Saint Vincent. Cricket West Indies identifies him as a left-handed tail-end batter and left-arm fast-medium bowler, matching the exact Wikipedia identity and playing styles.
His international and franchise use is clearly bowling-led. The St Kitts & Nevis Patriots relationship links to one canonical career rather than creating another team-specific biography.
The Wikipedia API table dated 8 July 2026 records 52 T20I wickets from 43 matches at 23.11. It lists one five-wicket innings and best bowling of 6/17, alongside 68 runs and four catches.
The six-wicket return is one innings already contained in the 52-wicket total. It is discussed separately because the official match report establishes its record context.
ICC's official report records McCoy taking 6/17 against India at Basseterre in August 2022. It was then the best men's T20I bowling return by a West Indies player, and McCoy received the Player of the Match award as West Indies won by five wickets.
The record is bounded to the date and format in the report. The six wickets are not added again to his career total, and the team win is not described as an individual statistic.
The dated table records four ODI wickets from two matches with best bowling of 2/38. It separately records six first-class wickets from four matches and 19 List A wickets from 20 matches.
ODIs sit within List A cricket, so four international wickets are already part of the wider limited-overs row. First-class cricket has different rules and is not combined with either white-ball category.
The official 2026 CPL match roster and Patriots team page establish McCoy's St Kitts & Nevis relationship. His named Cricket West Indies profile cross-checks exact identity and career context.
The local portrait is the exact named McCoy image from the official Patriots squad graphic. A roster establishes membership, while connected scorecards control selection, bowling returns and match results.
Obed McCoy is a West Indian bowler whose canonical This profile page brings together documented identity, playing role, dated career statistics, records, achievements and current team context. Born on 4 January 1997 in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Obed McCoy bats left-handed and bowls left-arm fast-medium. The profile separates slow-changing identity facts from match-driven aggregates so an API refresh cannot silently rewrite reviewed biography.
The canonical player URL is designed to serve team pages, fixtures, scorecards and results. Each membership can point here, while the career is stored once. Exact-name linking is allowed only when the player identity is unambiguous; a surname or shortened feed label must not be joined automatically when another cricketer could match.
Obed McCoy was 29 years old on 12 August 2026. The page shows both the documented birth date, 4 January 1997, and the age review date because age changes while date of birth does not. The birthplace is recorded as Saint Vincent and the Grenadines; it is not used to infer current residence, nationality beyond the published record or any private address.
An age field without an as-of date becomes stale, so future profile refreshes can recalculate the number without changing the URL or historic cricket content. If an authoritative identity source corrects a date or place, editors must review and record the correction rather than allowing a statistical provider to overwrite the core identity automatically.
Obed McCoy is classified as a bowler and bats left-handed and bowls left-arm fast-medium. These are distinct fields. A batter may have a bowling style without being an all-rounder, while a genuine all-rounder requires a substantive record in both disciplines. When the mapped identity source does not publish a bowling style, this page states that limitation instead of inventing one.
Runs, batting average, strike rate, wickets, bowling average, economy and catches answer different questions. One cannot stand in for another if a source leaves a field blank. The rendered table hides unavailable decorative cells and retains every meaningful value that Wikipedia publishes for the exact mapped player.
Career rows are synchronized from the exact English Wikipedia page through the MediaWiki API. The current table is dated 8 July 2026. Wikipedia is used as a structured secondary baseline, while ICC, national-board, league and club sources verify awards, selections, current teams and important match or season claims. This division prevents one source from being treated as authoritative for every type of fact.
The API does not invent missing figures. It imports only published table cells, preserves separate format labels and stores the provider URL and sync time. If the request fails, the last confirmed snapshot stays visible with its date. A failed refresh must never blank the page or substitute guessed statistics.
Test, ODI, T20I, first-class, List A and overall T20 records overlap in defined ways. Tests are part of first-class cricket and ODIs are part of List A cricket. Adding those rows would double-count matches, runs and wickets. A high score, best bowling return, hundred or five-wicket haul is also already contained in the relevant career aggregate.
The article can explain a milestone separately because context helps readers, but it does not add that performance again. Rankings, annual awards, series returns and lifetime totals also use different time windows. Every record is worded with its format, event or date so a historical achievement cannot be mistaken for a current live ranking.
The season context is Official 2026 match roster and active campaign. A team directory or squad announcement establishes membership at its check date, but it does not prove that Obed McCoy appeared in every fixture, stayed available throughout the competition or produced a particular match figure.
Appearances, runs, wickets, catches and results must come from the connected scorecard. A retirement or later transfer changes membership context, not the permanent player slug or past career totals.
A league may publish an auction price, draft band, retention deduction or registered-player value for a named season. Such a number has a specific competition, currency and contractual meaning. It is not automatically net salary after tax, guaranteed cash received, endorsement income, total career earnings or present personal wealth.
No audited financial statement reviewed for this article establishes Obed McCoy's current net worth. This profile therefore does not repeat speculative biography-site estimates. Where an official competition document publishes a defined price, it can be discussed with the exact season and label, but it must never be transformed into a broader financial claim.
This cricket biography does not fill space with relationship rumours, private addresses, contact details or unsupported claims about a spouse, girlfriend, children or family wealth. A fact is included only when a dependable source has made it public and it materially helps explain the player's cricket path or a documented public event.
Leaving an unverified personal field out is not incomplete research. It is the accurate result when reliable evidence is absent. The page instead uses its depth for format records, awards, team history, role, source method and update boundaries—topics a reader can verify without intruding on private life.
Achievements on this page are editorially reviewed and sourced to the organization that awarded, staged or recorded them. A championship is a team result, an award is a formal recognition, a century is an innings milestone, and a ranking is a dated comparative table. They may relate to the same season but are not interchangeable.
Career statistics can change after matches, while a completed award or historic match remains fixed. The automated Wikipedia sync is therefore allowed to refresh unlocked aggregates only. It cannot rewrite the wording of an ICC award, change a current-team membership, infer a private fact or approve a new image.
The displayed image depicts the exact player and retains a linked provenance and rights record. The profile credit identifies Official St Kitts and Nevis Patriots 2026 regional squad graphic and exact named 600 by 600 portrait retained for editorial use. The local file provides stable responsive delivery, and use of the image does not imply endorsement by the photographer, team, competition or player.
Image approval is independent of factual approval. A correct face may still be unusable when rights are unclear, and a reusable cricket photograph may depict the wrong person. Exact identity, file dimensions, visual usefulness, credit, licence or editorial-use permission, and source URL were reviewed before this profile was allowed to pass the portrait gate.
The focus keyword is exactly “Obed McCoy”. The browser title and visible H1 are both “Obed McCoy Age, Stats, 52 T20I Wickets and 6/17 West Indies Record”. The title names subjects actually covered on the page instead of showing only the player name or appending a generic word such as profile. This resolves the mismatch in which metadata promised one page while the visible heading showed another.
The meta description also describes only visible, sourced material. It does not claim live statistics, an unsupported salary, a private relationship or a current ranking without a dated check. Title, heading, introduction, sections and structured data therefore describe the same entity and editorial promise.
Identity and playing styles are checked against the exact player record. Wikipedia supplies the dated structured table. ICC, national boards, leagues and clubs supply primary context for achievements and memberships. Scorecards control match performance. Wikimedia Commons controls the portrait provenance and licence record. Each source has a defined job instead of being cited decoratively.
The stored checked date is 12 August 2026. A future update should retain the old snapshot until a new one passes identity and structure checks. Conflicting numbers must be investigated by format and cutoff date, not averaged. A newer source is not automatically better if it describes a different competition or statistical scope.
This profile is complete enough for editorial review but remains noindex while it is a draft or scheduled item. It becomes public only as part of an exact five-profile daily batch after the title, copy, statistics, sources, FAQ, conclusion, identity and portrait checks all pass. A working URL by itself is not permission for search indexing.
Scheduling this article therefore advances the local editorial queue without claiming a public deployment, Google indexing or rankings. The canonical URL remains stable when the later publication state changes.
This page aims for completeness without pretending that every searchable claim is knowable. Reliable cricket sources can establish a birth date, playing role, match statistics, award, squad membership and result. They usually cannot establish private wealth, take-home pay, fitness today, a confidential contract or a personal relationship. Those boundaries are disclosed instead of hidden.
Missing source cells are not replaced with dashes in the public narrative or inferred from adjacent numbers. If a new licensed data provider later supplies a clearly defined statistic, it may be added with its own source and date. Until then the most accurate answer is the evidence-backed record already shown.
