Ramnarace, a middle-order batsman and medium-paced bowler, was a regular member of the British Guiana/Guyana team from 1965-66 to 1972-73. He never quite made enough runs or took enough wickets to warrant selection for the West Indies Test team, although he played for the Rest of the World team that made a short tour of England in 1968, when he also played regularly for the International Cavaliers,[1] and took 59 wickets at an average of 14.42 to lead the Surrey Second XI attack to the Second XI Championship.[2]

He played Lancashire League cricket as the professional for Colne in 1969.[3] He was the leading bowler in the Worsley Cup, which Colne won, taking 19 wickets at an average of 8.57.[4]

His highest first-class score was 71, Guyana's highest score in the match, against Jamaica during the 1968–69 Shell Shield season.[5] His best first-class bowling figures were 6 for 101 for Berbice against Demerara in the Jones Cup in 1971-72.[6]
