Lance David John (born 7 April 1957) is a former
opening batsman
.
John made his senior debut for the Windwards in January 1981, in a limited-overs game against
Shell Shield, with the 1980–81 season being the last in which the Leewards and Windwards did not field separate teams.[2] During the 1982–83 season, John scored a maiden first-class century, making 110 against Barbados at his home ground, Arnos Vale.[3] He finished the season with 365 runs from five matches, behind only Lockhart Sebastien and Shane Julien for the Windwards.[4] In April 1984, playing for the Windwards against the touring Australians, John scored 114 in the first innings and 88 in the second, helping his team draw the match.[5] He made his third and final first-class century during the 1984–85 Shell Shield season (137 against Jamaica), and finished the season as the Windwards' leading run-scorer.[6] John played his final matches for the Windwards during the 1991–92 season, aged 34, and was only the second player from Saint Vincent to play more than fifty first-class matches (after Mike Findlay).[2]
