Young cricket star Ackeem Auguste smashed his way to the top during recent matches between West Indies Academy and Sri Lanka Emerging Players. The 22-year-old left-handed opener from Saint Lucia dominated the competition with his explosive batting. He racked up 296 runs across all formats, leaving everyone else behind. His powerful hitting included nine massive sixes that had spectators cheering. Auguste also recorded the highest individual score of 82 for the West Indies Academy team.

The action took place at two premier cricket venues during June 2025. Coolidge Cricket Ground and Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground hosted the intense battles. Two four-day unofficial Test matches and three 50-over games kept fans on the edge of their seats. Rivaldo Clarke finished second with 260 runs, followed by Sri Lankan player MKST de Livera with 201 runs. Auguste proved he could adapt to different game formats with ease.

Coach Ramesh Subasinghe has been working closely with the talented batsman. He praised Auguste for showing real growth and maturity during the series. The coach believes Auguste has natural talent but needs more work on his opening role. Converting fifties into centuries will be Auguste's next challenge. Subasinghe thinks the young player can bat anywhere and help his team win matches.
