Fabian Alex Adams (born 7 January 1975) is a former Anguillan cricketer who played for the Leeward Islands in West Indian domestic cricket. A right-handed opening batsman, he was the first Anguillan to score a first-class hundred.
Adams made his first-class debut for the Leewards in May 1997, playing against Guyana in the 1996–97 Red Stripe Cup.[1] He was out for five runs in the first innings, but made 69 not out in the second, opening the batting with Junie Mitchum.[2] In February 2003, Adams made 103 not out against West Indies B, becoming the first Anguillan to score a first-class century.[3] He finished the 2002–03 Carib Beer Cup season with 473 runs from seven games, behind only Stuart Williams for the Leewards.[4] In the 2002–03 Red Stripe Bowl, in Williams' absence, Adams served as captain of the Rest of Leeward Islands team that played during Antigua and Barbuda's period as a separate participant.[5] He played his final matches for the Leewards in the 2004–05 Regional Four Day Competition, aged 29.[6] In 2006, Adams also played a single match for Anguilla in the Stanford 20/20 tournament, against Barbados.[7]
