Yannick Leonard is a talented left-arm spinner hailing from Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory in the Eastern Caribbean.
Holder of a British Passport, the English (Buxton, Derbyshire) based tweaker played for his Country alongside the likes of Windies batter, Jahmar Hamilton, and Leeward Island stars, Montcin Hodge, Deon Burton, and Kelbert Walters.
The Anguillan spinner has represented his country for over a decade and, during this period has also featured for Leeward Islands in 10 domestic matches. He made his first-class debut during the 2012/13 season, then spent 3 seasons with the Leeward side taking 16 wickets at 33. Despite these numbers, Leonard hasn’t played first-class since his final outing against the Windward Islands in February 2015.
However, dominant performances for Anguilla in recent years culminated with a Leeward Islands return, playing a List A match against Barbados in November 2019.
The dual Passport holder has previous UK experience with Callington (Cornwall Premier League - 2019), Basildon and Pitsea (Mid-Essex Cricket League - 2021, and Chesterfield (Derbyshire Premier Cricket League - 2022).
During his opening stint, in the strong Cornwall League, he bagged 24 wickets at 20.58 to earn rave reviews. He returned in 2021 and enjoyed further success taking 43 wickets at 9.12 alongside 586 runs at 45.08 to finish top of the run charts, and second with the ball. Last summer, he continued to shine bagging 39 wickets at 15.87 plus 413 runs at 22.94 for good measure.
The talented spin bowling all-rounder is now open to options for the UK 2023 season.
