Calvin Brian Burnett (born 24 August 1954) is a former Guyanese cricketer who played for Guyana in West Indian domestic cricket during the late 1980s.
Burnett made his first-class debut for Guyana in January 1988, playing against Jamaica in the 1987–88 Red Stripe Cup.[1] An off-spin bowler and middle-order batsman, he took only a single wicket in his first season, but scored three half-centuries (50 and 52 on debut and 63 against Barbados).[2] [3] At the beginning of the following season, in October 1988, Burnett represented Demerara in the final of the Guystac Trophy, which at the time also held first-class status.[1] His final matches for Guyana came in February 1989, against Barbados in the 1988–89 Geddes Grant Shield (a limited-overs competition).[4]
