Keemo Paul can bowl with raw pace and with remarkable accuracy. Paul can surprise the batsmen with his quick bouncers. The West Indian pacer is also a handy batsman. The 22-year-old can change his batting as per the situation and the nature of the wicket. Paul is strong on both sides of the wicket and is an intelligent operator while running between the wickets.

The right-hander can find the boundaries with his effortless timing.  Paul is one of the finest talents to play the shorter format for the West Indies at the moment. Thus, he can also rotate the strike cleverly while his ability to go after the spinners can put the opposition under the pump. He has scored a handy 46 last year against India in ODI fixture which showcased his hard-hitting skills.

The youngster smashed three sixes and four boundaries in that particular innings. Paul’s strike rate in 18 T20I is 115.4 which makes him a dangerous batting option.
