[4] In January 2024,Mohammed announced her retirement from international cricket. [5]
Mohammed was born in Sangre Grande,Trinidad and Tobago,and raised in Maraj Hill,Coalmine,a small village nearby. She has a twin sister,Alisa,and twin brothers,Ashmeed and Ashmeer. [6] Her father,Imtiaz,is a Muslim,and her mother,Leela,a Hindu. [7] Both were keen cricketers:Imtiaz played for a club,and Leela participated in soft-ball cricket at the club level. [7] They also introduced their daughters to the game. [6] [8]
At a young age,Mohammed was appointed captain of her local community team,the MAAAD Rangers,which was formed by her family. She was educated at the Sangre Grande Hindu School,the SWAHA Hindu College and the School of Continuing Studies,Trinidad and Tobago. [6]
After good performances for the local club,she was called up the Trinidad and Tobago women's national cricket team. [9]
Mohammed made her One Day International debut in the West Indies' group stage match of the 2003 IWCC Trophy against Japan,becoming the 51st player to do so. Taking to field 12 days shy of her 15th birthday,Mohammed took the wicket of Ritsuko Hiroto to the finish the match with figures of 1/4 off her 10 overs. [10]

It would be three years until the West Indies played another match due to a lack of funding by the WICB. [13] In June 2008,the West Indies returned to the international arena when they toured Europe.

In the ODI series,Mohammed played in all five matches where the West Indies finished second behind South Africa. She secured her second player of the match award in the format with figures of 4/26 in a match where the West Indies comfortably defeated Sri Lanka by nine wickets. [34] [35] In the T20Is series,the West Indies won the final against Sri Lanka with Mohammed taking five wickets across the three matches. [36] [37]
The West Indies finished the season by touring India in January 2011 [38] where Mohammed was the West Indies leading wicket taking in the ODI series with eight and produced the best bowling figures with 4/27 in a series which India won 3–2. [39] [40]
The August–September 2011 Pakistan tour of the West Indies saw Mohammed produce one of the most dominating performances in the women's game.
