Cricket career

Matthews made her debut for the Barbadian cricket team at the age of 12.[1] Her international debut for the West Indies came at the age of 16, in a Twenty20 International against New Zealand in September 2014.[2] Matthews made her One Day International (ODI) debut a few months later,[3] scoring 55 runs from 86 balls in the first game of a four-ODI series against Australia.[4] In the second game, she scored 89 runs from 108 balls,[5] and in the third game, 60 runs from 81 balls.[6] Matthews has been a regular for the West Indies since her debut,[2][3] and was a key member of the team that won the 2016 World Twenty20, scoring 66 runs from 45 balls in the final.[7]

Outside of playing for the West Indies, Matthews spent the 2015–16 season playing domestic cricket in Australia, representing the Tasmanian Roar in the Women's National Cricket League and the Hobart Hurricanes in the inaugural season of the Women's Big Bash League.[8] In one WBBL match against the Melbourne Stars, she scored 77 runs from 51 balls.[9]

Athletics career

As an athlete, Matthews competes in the javelin throw, and has represented Barbados in a number of international meets and competitions. She won silver medals at the 2013 and 2014 CARIFTA Games, competing in the under-17 and under-18 categories, respectively. At the 2014 Central American and Caribbean Junior Championships in Athletics, held in Mexico, she won a bronze medal in the under-18 category, while at the 2015 CARIFTA Games she won her first gold medal, again competing in the under-18 category.[10]
