Biography

New two-year Kolpak signing, Pedro Collins, is a skilful left-arm swing bowler from Barbados. Collins is experienced on the International stage with 32 Tests and 39 One-Day caps for the West Indies. In October 2007, Collins showed his worth by claiming an astonishing 7 wickets for 11 runs, as Barbados bowled out West Indies’ Under-19s for just 18 runs. Best not to mention the time Collins took a direct ‘box’ hit from a ball bowled by Australian, Jason Gillespie: it might make your eyes water too.
