The Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board (TTCB) has paid tribute to former West Indies Women’s Captain Merissa Aguilleira.
Aguilleira continues to receive accolades after being named by the prestigious Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) in their 2023 cohort of Honorary Life Members.
The wicketkeeper/batsman is the first West Indian woman to be given the honour by the custodians of the former governing body for world cricket whose headquarters is the famous Lord’s Ground in London.
On Easter Monday, Aguilleira was the recipient of a plaque presented by President of the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board, Azim Bassarath, at the National Cricket Centre in Balmain, Couva.
First Vice President of the TTCB, Arjoon Ramlal, said Aguilleira’s perseverance and resilience is greatly admired and she had done much to place the West Indies women cricketers on the world map.
