A right-arm leg-spin bowler, Dewar played for the West Indies under-19s at the 2010 Under-19 World Cup in New Zealand.[1] His best performance at the tournament came against Bangladesh, when he took 3/63 from ten overs.[2] Dewar made his first-class debut for Jamaica in April 2010, playing against Ireland in the 2009–10 Regional Four Day Competition. He made a further appearance for Jamaica the following season, but for the 2011–12 season switched to the Combined Campuses.[3] Against Barbados in February 2013, Dewar took a maiden first-class five-wicket haul, 7/116.[4] He subsequently signed with the Jamaica Tallawahs franchise for the 2013 Caribbean Premier League season, but played only a single match.[5]
