About Andy Ganteaume

  • Andrew Gordon Ganteaume (22 January 1921 – 17 February 2016) was a Trinidadian cricketer who played one Test match for the West Indies in 1948 as a batsman.
  • He scored 112 in his only Test innings, which left him with the highest Test batting average in history, having not played at least 20 innings.
  • Ganteaume played for Trinidad from a young age and was chosen to play in a Test match against England following his good batting form in 1948.
  • However, his slow scoring probably cost him his place and he never played another Test, although he toured England with the West Indies in 1957.
  • At the time of his death, Ganteaume was the oldest surviving West Indies Test cricketer.
