Felicien played in five of her team's seven matches at the World Cup, making her debut in the third match of the tournament, against Australia.[3] She and Eugena Gregg were the only Saint Lucians in the squad, and the first Saint Lucians to be selected in any West Indies squad.[4] Felicien was given little game time, batting in the lower order and bowling only 15 overs, without taking a wicket.[2] Against New Zealand, she was out leg before wicket to Julie Harris for a golden duck, giving Harris her hat-trick.[5] Felicien died in a motor vehicle accident on 27 February 1997, at the age of 29.[2][6] Her aunt, Verena Felicien, later captained the West Indies.[7]
