Denesh Ramdin (born 13 March 1985) is a former Trinidadian cricketer who played as a right-handed wicketkeeper-batsman. Ramdin formerly captained the West Indies, Guyana Amazon Warriors, Trinidad and Tobago and the Combined Campuses and Colleges.[1] He was a member of the West Indies team that won both the 2012 T20 World Cup and the 2016 T20 World Cup.

Ramdin scored four Test hundreds with a highest innings of 166 against England in 2009, this is the second-highest score made by a West Indies wicket-keeper in Tests.[2] His best ODI score of 169, against Bangladesh in 2014, is also the second-highest made by a West Indies keeper in that format.[3] Ramdin is also third, behind Jeff Dujon and Ridley Jacobs, in both Test and ODI wicketkeeping dismissals for the Windies respectively.[4][5][6]
