Hope was born in Saint Michael Parish, and attended Queen's College and The Lodge School.[1] He made his first-class debut for Barbados during the 2009–10 Regional Four Day Competition, and made semi-regular appearances over the following three seasons.[2] After a period of poor form, Hope was left without a team for the 2013–14 season, although the following year he appeared for the Combined Campuses in the 2014–15 Regional Super50.[3] He had earlier played for the team in the 2011 and 2012 Caribbean Twenty20 tournaments.[4] For the 2015–16 season, Hope switched to Trinidad and Tobago, returning to first-class cricket for the first time since February 2013.[2] His younger brother, Shai Hope, is also a professional cricketer, and has played international cricket for the West Indies.[5]

In June 2017, he was added to the West Indies One Day International (ODI) squad, ahead of the third match against India.[6] He made his ODI debut for the West Indies against India on 30 June 2017.[7] The following month, he was named in the West Indies squad for the Test series against England.[8] He made his Test debut in the first match of the series on 17 August 2017.[9]

In November 2019, he was named in Trinidad and Tobago's squad for the 2019–20 Regional Super50 tournament.[10] In June 2020, he was selected by Barbados, in the players' draft hosted by Cricket West Indies ahead of the 2020–21 domestic season.[11]
