Norden are excited to announce the signing of West Indian international Jermaine Blackwood as professional for the 2025 season. Blackwood brings with him a wealth of experience at the very highest level, having played 56 tests for the West Indies. His three hundreds include two against England, one being against an attack including Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad in 2015. He was also named in ESPN Cricinfo’s world test team of the year in 2020.
An aggressive right-handed batter, Blackwood also bowls more than useful right-arm medium pace and is an athletic presence in the field. He also has experience of league cricket in this area, having played for Heyside in the GMCL last year. In a time where professionals with this level of international pedigree are hard to find, the club are thrilled to welcome Jermaine to Stag Park and he is sure to bring great entertainment to Lancashire League grounds throughout the season.
The club would like to place on record our thanks to Dan and Steven from Cric X in facilitating the deal.
