Domestic and T20 franchise career

Fletcher played for the West Indian cricket team in the 2006 U-19 Cricket World Cup in Sri Lanka. Fletcher also featured in the Stanford Super Series where he played for the Stanford Superstars. He opened the batting alongside Chris Gayle where he scored 90 off just 60 balls against Middlesex, which included 3 fours and 7 sixes. He continued his form into the US$20 million showdown against England by scoring 32 not out, to earn himself US$1 million. His lack of awareness of his surroundings in the middle has cost him his wicket more than once as he has been run out numerous times.

In October 2018, he was named in the squad for the Sylhet Sixers team, following the draft for the 2018–19 Bangladesh Premier League.[2] In June 2019, he was selected to play for the Brampton Wolves franchise team in the 2019 Global T20 Canada tournament.[3] In July 2020, he was named in the St Lucia Zouks squad for the 2020 Caribbean Premier League.[4][5]

Fletcher was named in Melbourne Stars squad for 2020-21 Big Bash League season.[6]

International career

He made his senior international debut in a Twenty20 match against Australia at Bridgetown in 2008. After making 53 off just 32 balls in the 2009 ICC World Twenty20, he could only manage 21 runs in his next 7 innings representing the West Indies, including 5 ducks in those 7 innings.
