Wayne Phillip (born 25 November 1977) is a former Dominican cricketer who represented the Windward Islands and several other teams in West Indian domestic cricket. He played as a wicket-keeper, and batted left-handed.
Phillip was born in Grand Fond, in Dominica's Saint David Parish.[1] He made his senior Windward Islands debut at the age of 19, playing in the 1997–98 Red Stripe Bowl (a limited-overs competition).[2] Phillip made his first-class the following season, playing for West Indies A against Jamaica, and was subsequently selected for a West Indies A tour of India, as a back-up wicket-keeper to Courtney Browne. He again played for West Indies A during the 1999–00 season, when India A toured, and was then chosen for the West Indian senior team's 2000 tour of England.[3] Selected as a reserve for Ridley Jacobs, he did not play in any of the international matches on tour, but did feature in a number of games against English county teams.[4]
In the 2000–01 Busta Cup, Phillip played for West Indies B, a development team. That was his last season at first-class level.[3] However, he continued to play regional one-day cricket for another two seasons, representing the Northern Windward Islands in the 2001–02 Red Stripe Bowl and the Rest of Windward Islands team in the 2002–03 Red Stripe Bowl.[2] Phillip briefly returned to top-level West Indian cricket in 2006, when he represented the Dominican national team at the Stanford 20/20. His sole appearance came in Dominica's loss to Grenada, which knocked the team out of the tournament.[5]
