==International career==
===Rise in ranks===
Sarwan made his [[Test cricket|Test]] debut against [[Pakistani cricket team|Pakistan]] at [[Barbados]] in May 2000 – a match in which he was unbeaten in both innings including a first innings score of 84 not out.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/pakistan-tour-of-west-indies-2000-61492/west-indies-vs-pakistan-2nd-test-63881/full-scorecard|title=West Indies vs Pakistan 2nd Test Full Scorecard |work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/pakistan-tour-of-west-indies-2000-61492/west-indies-vs-pakistan-2nd-test-63881/match-report|title=West Indies v Pakistan: Bridgetown test, Statistical highlights|author=Gupta, Rajneesh|date=May 26, 2000 |work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> He missed scoring his maiden Test century against [[South African cricket team|South Africa]] in March 2001 when he was [[run out]] for 91.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/south-africa-tour-of-west-indies-2000-01-61838/west-indies-vs-south-africa-1st-test-63925/match-report|title=Honours shared as First Test ends in draw|date=March 12, 2001 |work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> His score of 78 in the second Test against [[Indian cricket team|India]] at [[Chennai]] in October 2002 was his fifth innings of 75+ that was not converted into a century.<ref name="TestInnings">{{cite web |title=Statsguru - Ramnaresh Sarwan - Test  innings by innings list |url=https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/52969.html?class=1;template=results;type=batting;view=innings |work=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=16 October 2023}}</ref> His maiden Test century came in his next Test series against [[Bangladeshi cricket team|Bangladesh]] at [[Dhaka]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espn.com/cricket/story/_/id/23186759/sarwan-makes-bangladesh-toil-maiden-test-ton|title=Sarwan makes Bangladesh toil with maiden Test ton|author=Kumar, Rajesh|date=9 December 2002 |work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> His next Test century came against [[Australian cricket team|Australia]] at [[St. John's, Antigua and Barbuda|St. John's]] in May 2003.<ref name="TestInnings"/> As a part-time right arm leg-break bowler, Sarwan picked up his best test bowling figures, in June 2004, with 4 for 37 against Bangladesh.

In September of that year, the Windies went on to win the [[2004 ICC Champions Trophy Final|final]] of the [[2004 ICC Champions Trophy]] against England with Sarwan being named as the player of the tournament.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/other_international/3682460.stm|title=West Indies lift home spirits|date=25 September 2004|publisher=[[BBC]]|website=bbc.com}}</ref>

With an investigation being led in 2004 by the [[International Cricket Council]] into most of the world's international-class bowlers, Sarwan was found to be the only bowler tested who did not transgress the Laws of Cricket regarding the straightening of the arm during delivery.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2004/11/12/sports/cricket-new-twist-on-bowling.html|title=CRICKET : New twist on bowling|author=Richards, Huw|date=12 November 2004|publisher=[[New York Times]]|website=nytimes.com}}</ref>

On 23 May 2006, Sarwan scored 115 not out in his hundredth one day international. This was the third game of a five match odi series played against India at the Warner Park Sporting Complex in [[Basseterre]], St. Kitts.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/superb-sarwan-seals-the-deal-248164|title=Superb Sarwan seals the deal|author=Premachandran, Dileep|date=23 May 2006 |work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref>

Sarwan was dropped from the side for the second Test against Pakistan in November 2006. It was the first time in his six-year career that he had missed a game due to poor form. According to captain [[Brian Lara]] "It wasn't designed as a drop. We just wanted to make him aware of the situation and come back stronger. We need him and we need him to take control."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Samiuddin |first1=Osman |title=Lara diplomatic on Sarwan's chances |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/lara-diplomatic-on-sarwan-s-chances-269606 |work=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=16 October 2023 |date=24 November 2006}}</ref>

===Captaincy===
On 29 April 2007 it was announced that Sarwan was to succeed the retiring [[Brian Lara]] as captain of the West Indies following the side's exit from the [[2007 Cricket World Cup|2007 World Cup]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/22952863/sarwan-handed-west-indies-captaincy|title=Sarwan confirmed as West Indies captaincy|access-date=29 April 2020|work=ESPNcricinfo|date=1 May 2007|publisher=ESPN Sports Media}}</ref>

During the second Test in the West Indies tour of England in May 2007, Sarwan injured his shoulder when he collided with a boundary fence while attempting to prevent a four. This shoulder injury ruled him out of the remainder of the tour and for a further ten months.<ref name="Cricinfo">{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/sarwan-pleased-with-strong-return-345403|title=Sarwan pleased with strong return|date=7 April 2008|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|work=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.rte.ie/sport/cricket/2007/0530/218432-westindies/|title=Windies must select sub captain|date=30 May 2007|work=[[RTÉ]]}}</ref>

===Post captaincy===
Sarwan returned to the West Indies side in 2008 for the home series against Sri Lanka, as vice-captain to [[Chris Gayle]]. Throughout the series Sarwan scored over 50 in four consecutive innings, including a match-winning century, at an average of 77.75. He was also named man of the series for his batting feats.<ref name="Cricinfo" /><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thedailystar.net/news-detail-31226?amp|title=Sarwan squares series|date=8 April 2008|publisher=[[The Daily Star (Bangladesh)|Daily Star]]|website=thedailystar.net}}</ref>

In the subsequent 2008 Test series against Australia, Sarwan continued his fine batting form. With Sarwan scoring a half century and a matching saving 128 in the second Test at the [[Sir Vivian Richards Stadium]] in [[North Sound]], [[Antigua]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.stabroeknews.com/2008/06/04/sports/sarwan-128-chanderpaul-77-not-out-guide-windies-to%E2%80%A6/|title=Sarwan, 128, Chanderpaul, 77 not out guide Windies to…|date=4 June 2008|publisher=[[Stabroek News]]|website=stabroeknews.com}}</ref> At the age 28 years, 228 days he became the youngest West Indian to reach the 5,000 runs milestone when he scored a century in the first Test of the 2009 home series against England at [[Sabina Park]] in Jamaica.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Atherton |first1=Mike |title=Stuart Broad’s double strike lifts spirits after Chris Gayle and Ramnaresh Sarwan extend suffering |url=https://www.thetimes.com/article/stuart-broads-double-strike-lifts-spirits-after-chris-gayle-and-ramnaresh-sarwan-extend-suffering-2bpmvs260gs |access-date=15 July 2024 |work=The Times |date=7 February 2009}}</ref> In scoring his 13th Test match century Sarwan equalled the record for the most centuries in the fourth innings – a record he shared until 2017 with [[Sunil Gavaskar]] and [[Ricky Ponting]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?class=1;filter=advanced;innings_number=4;orderby=hundreds;template=results;type=batting|title=Most 4th innings hundreds|access-date=29 April 2020|work=ESPNcricinfo|publisher=ESPN Sports Media}}</ref> He went on to notch his highest test innings score, being 291 in the first innings of the fourth test of the said series played in March 2009 at [[Barbados]]' [[Kensington Oval]].

===Late career===
Sarwan did however lose his central contract due to poor fitness and indifferent form. West Indies coach [[Ottis Gibson]] stated that leaving Sarwan out was a tough decision but he will make many contributions to the West Indies in the future and that he needs time to regain his form. Therefore, he wasn't selected for the tour of Sri Lanka along with regular wicket-keeper [[Denesh Ramdin]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/22508196/west-indies-news-dropping-ramnaresh-sarwan-was-tough-decision-ottis-gibson|title=Dropping Sarwan was tough decision - Gibson|access-date=29 April 2020|work=ESPNcricinfo|date=21 October 2010|publisher=ESPN Sports Media}}</ref>

==Controversy==
Sarwan was accused of corruption and match-fixing in 2011, but his charges were dismissed. West Indies cricket official Ernest Hilaire cited irresponsible reporting as the reason rumours spread that batsman Ramnaresh Sarwan was under investigation for match-fixing.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2011-04-20 |title=Windies chief slams Sarwan corruption rumours |url=https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/windies-chief-slams-sarwan-corruption-rumours-119354 |access-date=2022-05-13 |website=www.mid-day.com |language=en}}</ref> In 2020, [[Chris Gayle]] called Ramnaresh Sarwan 'worse than global pandemic'.

==Style of play==
For much of his career, Sarwan wore a bandana under his helmet whilst batting but dropped the practice due to a change in the design of helmet.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Wilson |first=Jack |date=29 May 2014 |title='I used to be the messiest player in the West Indies dressing room' |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/ramnaresh-sarwan-i-used-to-be-the-messiest-player-in-the-west-indies-dressing-room-740909 |access-date=2023-03-03 |work=ESPNcricinfo |language=en}}</ref> He shared the habit of his fellow countrymen [[Shivnarine Chanderpaul]] and [[Narsingh Deonarine]] of marking his guard with a bail.{{citation needed|date=April 2020}}

==Personal life==
Sarwan was born in an [[Indo-Guyanese]] family to Kishan and Kumari Sarwan, as the eldest of their three children, in [[Wakenaam]], an island in [[Guyana]]'s [[Essequibo River]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Khan |first=Nasser |date=2009-09-01 |title=Ramnaresh Sarwan: a soft-spoken star |url=https://www.caribbean-beat.com/issue-99/ramnaresh-sarwan-soft-spoken-star |access-date=2023-03-03 |website=[[Caribbean Beat]] |language=en-GB}}</ref> He later married Cindy Parsram as per Hindu rituals in 2013.<ref>{{Cite web |last=KNews |date=2013-12-22 |title=Cricket star Sarwan weds |url=https://www.kaieteurnewsonline.com/2013/12/22/cricket-star-sarwan-weds/ |access-date=2023-03-03 |website=Kaieteur News |language=en-US}}</ref> They have three children together.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Parkinson |first=Cindy |date=2022-11-06 |title=‘Hitting sixes’ in a different arena |url=https://guyanachronicle.com/2022/11/06/hitting-sixes-in-a-different-arena/ |access-date=2023-03-03 |website=[[Guyana Chronicle]] |language=en-US}}</ref>
