James made his first-class debut in January 2004, playing for the Windwards against Jamaica in the 2003–04 Carib Beer Cup.[1] He scored his maiden first-class half-century during the 2006–07 season, making 55 against the Leeward Islands.[2] In 2006 and 2008, James played for Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in the Stanford 20/20.[3] Against Sint Maarten in the opening match of the 2008 tournament, he scored 73 not out from 37 balls, including four sixes.[4] James was subsequently selected as the back-up wicket-keeper to Andre Fletcher in the Stanford Superstars team for the 2008 Stanford Super Series. He played in only a single match, an exhibition game against Trinidad and Tobago, but as a member of the squad shared in the prize money of US$12 million that was on offer to the winners.[5] James later played several seasons in the Caribbean Twenty20, but has been unable to secure a contract with a Caribbean Premier League (CPL) franchise. His most recent games for the Windwards came in the 2014–15 Regional Four Day Competition.[1]
