Sunil Walford Ambris (born 23 March 1993) is a Vincentian professional cricketer who has represented the West Indies in Tests and ODIs. He currently captains the Windward Islands and has also represented Combined Campuses and Colleges in West Indian domestic cricket, as well as representing the St Lucia Zouks in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL). He was the first player to be dismissed hit-wicket twice in consecutive Tests and the first to be dismissed hit-wicket on Test debut.
At the 2012–13 Caribbean Twenty20, Ambris played two matches for the Combined Campuses, against the Leeward Islands and Jamaica.[1] His first-class debut came during the 2013–14 Regional Four Day Competition, when he played for the Windward Islands against Guyana.[2] In his first innings, Ambris scored 114 runs from 200 balls, eventually being named man of the match.[3] He finished his debut season with 468 runs from six matches, making him the Windwards' leading run-scorer behind Devon Smith.[4]
In March 2017, during the 2016–17 Regional Four Day Competition, he scored a double century for the Windward Islands against the Leeward Islands.[5] In the 2016–17 Regional Super50, he was the top run-scorer for the Windward Islands, scoring more than double the number of runs of any of his teammates, with 423 in total.[6]
In October 2018, Cricket West Indies (CWI) awarded him a development contract for the 2018–19 season.[7][8]
