Harris made his first-class debut for the Leewards in the 1987–88 Red Stripe Cup, at the relatively old age of 30,[1] and his List A debut less than a week later, in the 1987–88 Geddes Grant/Harrison Line Trophy.[2] He was initially included in the team as a wicket-keeper, coming in either sixth or seventh in the batting order, but later in his career was sometimes used as a specialist batsman, with either McChesney Simon or Ridley Jacobs taking the gloves.[1] Harris began his first-class career with scores of 49 on debut against Trinidad and Tobago,[3] and 52 runs in the next match against the Windward Islands.[4] During the 1989–90 Red Stripe Cup, he scored 250 runs from five matches, placing him eighth in the competition for runs and behind only Richie Richardson for the Leewards.[5] Harris did lead the Leewards' run-scoring during the 1991–92 season, scoring 291 runs including a career-best 98 against Guyana.[6] His career, which concluded after the 1992–93 season, included eleven first-class half-centuries and a single limited-overs half-century,[7] an innings of 62 against Jamaica.[8] Harris played as a wicket-keeper in all but eight of his first-class matches, and all but six of his List A matches.[1][2]
