In October 2019, he was named in the Windward Islands' squad for the 2019–20 Regional Super50 tournament.[7] He was the leading run-scorer for the Windward Islands in the tournament, with 341 runs in seven matches.[8] In July 2020, he was named in the St Lucia Zouks squad for the 2020 Caribbean Premier League.[9][10]

In December 2020, Hodge was named in the West Indies' Test squad for their series against Bangladesh.[11]

In May 2023, he was named in West Indies One Day International (ODI) squad for the series against United Arab Emirates.[12] He made his ODI debut in the first ODI of the series, on 4 June 2023, becoming the second Dominican cricketer to make their One Day International debut for the West Indies after Alick Athanaze.[13]

In December 2023, he was selected in West Indies squad for the Test series against Australia.[14] He made his Test match debut on 17 January at the Adelaide Oval.[15]
