Kaieteur Sports – New Zealand middle-order batter Bevon Jacobs has joined the Desert Vipers for the ExxonMobil Guyana Global Super League 2026 (GSL), where he is expected to play a key role as a finisher.

The 24-year-old, who made his New Zealand debut in the shortest format last year following a stunning season in the domestic Super Smash for Auckland in 2024/25, has already enjoyed successful stints with the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons in the Caribbean Premier League (CPL), the Quetta Gladiators in the Pakistan Super League, and MI Emirates in the DP World ILT20. He was also included in the Mumbai Indians squad for the Indian Premier League.

Speaking on Vipers Voices, Jacobs discussed how he had shaped his game to become an effective finisher.
