SD Hope

India · Left-arm orthodox · Batter

SD Hope is a batter for West Indies Cricket whose primary format is the One-Day International. Across 320 career matches he has scored 11,686 runs at an average of 36.29. In ODIs specifically, where he has played 135 times, his average rises to 49.27 from 5,666 runs at a strike rate of 81.54. Those numbers mark him as one of the more productive ODI batters West Indies have produced. His most recent appearances, from January to March 2026, are almost entirely T20 cricket, and his scores in that period have ranged from a bright 75 off 46 balls to a pair of single-figure dismissals, so current form is patchy rather than settled.

Beyond the numbers

ODI average of 49.27 across 135 matches

Hope's ODI record is the centrepiece of his career. Across 135 matches he has scored 5,666 runs at 49.27, a figure that places him comfortably among the most productive ODI batters of his generation for West Indies.

Sir Vivian Richards Stadium is his strongest venue

At the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, Hope averages 57.13 across 17 matches, with 914 runs to his name. That return is the highest average of any ground he has played at more than once.

Bangladesh his most productive opponent on record

Against Bangladesh Cricket, Hope averages 50.65 across 28 matches, scoring 1,317 runs at a strike rate of 79.82. That combination of volume and consistency makes Bangladesh his standout head-to-head fixture.

Mixed T20 form through January and February 2026

Hope's last ten appearances span T20 Internationals and tournament cricket. He posted scores of 75 off 46 balls and 61 not out off 44, but also three single-figure dismissals, so his recent record is a study in contrast.

320 matches across five formats and ten franchises

Over 320 career appearances Hope has accumulated 11,686 runs at an average of 36.29. He has represented West Indies Cricket in 243 matches and turned out for franchises including the Guyana Amazon Warriors, Barbados Royals and Lahore Qalandars.
