The West Indies batsman Runako Morton has died following a car accident in Trinidad on Sunday night. Reports in the Caribbean said the 33-year-old lost control of his vehicle while driving and was killed when he crashed into a utility pole.

Morton played in 15 Tests and 56 one-day internationals for West Indies, and his last appearance for his country came against Australia in a Twenty20 international in 2010. While he averaged 22.03 in Tests, he had more success in the limited-overs game. He averaged 33.75, with the highlight an unbeaten 110 against New Zealand in 2006.

A tweet from the West Indies Cricket Board's official account read: "Our deepest condolences to Runako Morton's family. Such devastating and tragic news."

Several of Morton's team-mates also expressed their shock and sadness on Twitter. The Windies captain, Chris Gayle, said: "We lost a True Warrior. WI cricketer Runako Morton – may his soul rest in peace! Our memories together Live On! My condolences to his family."

The former all-rounder Wavell Hinds tweeted: "Gone far too soon brother Runako. I will treasure the great memories for sure. RIP God knows best," while Rayad Emrit, who played with Morton for Trinidad, said: "RIP Morton. You'll always be remembered buddy. Gone but NEVER forgotten. We miss you bro."

The England batsman Kevin Pietersen added: "My thoughts go out to Runako Morton's family this morning ... such sad news!! What a lovely guy and fierce competitor!! RIP bossman!!!"
