Earl Fraites (born 6 September 1953) is a former Saint Lucian cricketer who represented the Windward Islands in West Indian domestic cricket. He played as a right-handed middle-order batsman and right-arm off-spin bowler.
Fraites made his first-class debut for the Windward Islands in April 1973, playing against the touring Australians.[1] On debut, he failed to take a wicket, but batting eighth in his team's second innings scored 38 runs, putting on 113 runs for the seventh wicket with Norbert Phillip.[2] Fraites made irregular appearances for the Windwards over the following seasons, and was promoted up the batting order, batting as high as fourth.[1] Against the Leeward Islands in January 1977, in what turned out to be his final first-class appearance, he took career-best bowling figures, 4/84 from 27.5 overs.[3] Fraites was only 23 at the time of his last appearance for the Windwards, and continued to play for Saint Lucia in regional competitions for several more years.[4]
