A right-handed batsman, Richards debuted in 1999/00. His highest first class score of 159 was made against Jamaica in the Carib Beer Series of 2006/07.

He then played the first two One Day Internationals against Bangladesh and two matches during the West Indies' 2009 ICC Champions Trophy campaign before being called up to the West Indies squad for the second ODI against South Africa in 2010.[1]
