Singh was born at Georgetown, Guyana, before emigrating to Sint Maarten. He was selected in Sint Maarten's squad for the 2006 Stanford 20/20, making his debut in Twenty20 cricket against the United States Virgin Islands.[2] Singh captained Sint Maarten in this match, during which he bowled four wicket-less overs and scored an unbeaten run coming into bat at number eleven. The United States Virgin Islands won the match by 47 runs, eliminating Sint Maarten from the tournament.[3] He was later selected in Sint Maarten's squad for the second edition of the tournament, although this time the team was captained by Royston Trocard. Having received a bye into the first round after Cuba could not fulfill their preliminary round fixture,[4] Singh featured in the first-round match against Saint Vincent and the Grenadines,[2] which despite an unbeaten century from John Eugene, Sint Maarten lost by 10 runs and were eliminated from the tournament.[5] Having retired as a player, Singh has been the Sint Maarten coach since at least 2009.[1]
