LONDON: Afghanistan legspinner Rashid Khan, the No. 1 ranked T20I bowler, has been added to the World XI squad that will take on West Indies in a one-off T20I at Lord’s on May 31. The match is being organised to raise funds for the reconstruction of stadiums that were damaged in the Caribbean last year by Hurricanes Irma and Maria.
Rashid’s participation, along with the Bangladesh pair of Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan, was confirmed by the ICC on Monday. The trio joins Pakistan’s Shahid Afridi and Shoaib Malik, and Sri Lanka allrounder Thisara Perera. The team is being led by the England limited-overs captain Eoin Morgan.
West Indies squad: Samuel Badree, Carlos Brathwaite (capt), Rayad Emrit, Andre Fletcher, Chris Gayle, Evin Lewis, Ashley Nurse, Keemo Paul, Rovman Powell, Denesh Ramdin (wk), Andre Russell, Marlon Samuels, Kesrick Williams.
