Kemar Roach, the pacer for the West Indies, has lately spoken out about his mentorship position within the squad. After witnessing young Shamar Joseph‘s outstanding debut, Kemar Roach predicted that the pacer will have a bright future.
The Windies are currently engaged in a two-game Test series against Australia, the first of which Australia won handily by ten wickets. West Indies will be expecting better results from the second Test, which is scheduled to start on January 25. Before the second Test, Kemar Roach publicly stated that he can now be a mentor for young Joseph because he had mentors like Jerome Taylor, Daren Powell, and Fidel Edwards when he was a rookie on the squad.
“I began off with mentors. Fidel Edwards, Daren Powell, and Jerome Taylor. When I first started working, there were some guys there to support me. I used what I knew and made use of it. Thus, obviously, for me right now, it’s all about handing the torch to the younger players,” Roach stated during the news conference held prior to kickoff.

“Shamar has a bright future ahead of him.” He is eager to learn at this point. We talk a lot between us. Therefore, I believe that if he continues in that direction—not only from me, but from anyone else he believes will support him in his career—he will be able to absorb a great deal of information and improve as a cricket player, Roach said.
Interestingly, Shamar Joseph claimed a wicket with the very first ball of his Test career in addition to scoring 36 runs in his debut. Furthermore, the explosive bowler finished with five wickets. Joseph will want to improve even more on his performance in anticipation of the second match, which should be a victory for the West Indies against Australia in the current Test series.
