Linden Anthony Joseph (born 8 January 1969) is a former Guyanese cricketer.
Joseph was born in January 1969 at Georgetown, Guyana. Having represented Guyana at Under-19 level, [1] Joseph made his debut in first-class cricket for Demerara against Berbice in the 1986–87 Guystac Trophy final at Georgetown. [2] In March 1987, he made his debut for Guyana in first-class cricket, against Barbados, [2] whilst also making his debut in List A one-day cricket the following month against Trinidad and Tobago in the 1986–87 Geddes Grant/Harrison Line Trophy. [3] Having appeared for a Young West Indies cricket team against the touring Zimbabweans in two first-class and three List A matches in October–November 1989, [2] [3] and for Guyana in the 1989–90 Red Stripe Cup, [2] Joseph was signed by English county side Hampshire ahead of the 1990 season on the recommendation of Malcolm Marshall. [4] He made just six first-class appearances for Hampshire, taking seven wickets at an expensive average of exactly 66; [5] his season at Hampshire was more notable for his batting, despite being in the team as a bowler. He scored 152 runs in five innings, being dismissed once and recording what would be highest first-class score of 69 not out against Oxford University. [4] He also made one List A appearance against the Combined Universities in the Benson & Hedges Cup. [3]
Joseph continued to play representative cricket for Guyana until 1995, making a total of 24 first-class and 19 one-day appearances. [2] [3] He took 67 wickets for Guyana in first-class matches, at an average of 27.74; [5] he twice took a five wicket haul, with his best bowling figures of 6 for 51 coming against Jamaica. [6] With the bat, he scored 459 runs at a batting average of 14.80, with a single half century score of 52. [7] In one-day cricket, he took 23 wickets at an average of 25.73, with best figures of 4 for 26. [8] In addition to playing first-class cricket for the aforementioned teams, Joseph also played twice each for the West Indies Under-23s and for the West Indies A. [2] His overall first-class bowling record with his right-arm fast bowling was 98 wickets at an average of 29.75. [4] While he did not return to English county cricket, Joseph did play in the Lancashire League for Enfield in 1991 and 1992. [4]
