His tournament included scores of 70 from 35 balls against the Titans (a South African team) and 62 from 46 balls in the semi-final against the Mumbai Indians. For the 2014 Caribbean Premier League, Lewis signed with the Trinidad and Tobago Red Steel franchise, and scored 321 runs from eight innings (the most for his team, and seventh overall). He switched to the new St Kitts and Nevis Patriots franchise for the 2015 edition, and scored the third-most runs for his team (behind Marlon Samuels and Martin Guptill). Later in 2015, Lewis signed with the Barisal Bulls franchise for the inaugural season of the Bangladesh Premier League. In one match against the Dhaka Dynamites, he scored 101 not out from 65 balls, the tournament's only century. Lewis later represented Dhaka Dynamites in the competition, scoreing another century in his short stint in the 2016 edition.

He was selected to play for the Vancouver Knights in the players' draft for the inaugural 2018 edition of the Global T20 Canada tournament.
He was named in the squad for the Comilla Victorians team following the draft for the 2018–19 Bangladesh Premier League.

International career
In March 2016, Lewis was added to the West Indies squad for the 2016 ICC World Twenty20, replacing the injured Lendl Simmons. He made his Twenty20 International (T20I) debut on 27 March 2016 against Afghanistan at Nagpur
In his very second T20I, Lewis scored a blistering century against India in the first match of the series in the USA. He scored the century off 48 balls, which was the second fastest by a West Indian, after Gayle, and sixth fastest overall. During his innings, he hit five sixes in five balls from an over bowled by Stuart Binny. He didn't manage a six from the final ball, but still made 32 runs(1 run made by a wide) from the over. The West Indies scored 245 runs and won by one run. The match set a new record for the most sixes in a T20I and Lewis won man-of-the-match.
He made his One Day International (ODI) debut for the West Indies against Pakistan on 5 October 2016. He scored his maiden ODI century of 148 against Sri Lanka at Harare Sports Club in Zimbabwe Tri-series. While wickets fell around him, he batted maturely and made some big shots when the opportunity came, the innings including 15 fours and 4 sixes. He couldn't carry the West Indies to victory in what would have been a record chase. Despite the success he found in Zimbabwe, he was unable to carry his form in the series against England, Pakistan and India.
He made his second T20I hundred on 9 July 2017 against India at Sabina Park. He smashed 125*, which is the highest score in a T20I chase, also becoming the third batsman to score two international T20 tons, after Brendon McCullum and Chris Gayle. It was also the highest score by a West Indian batsman.
