#2 Carlos Braithwaite
Braithwaite, who will lead the current T20 champions on the day, will be one of the most important players for West Indies against the World XI. He came into his own in the latter part of his IPL 2018 campaign with the tournament finalists, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and showcased some tremendous hitting power with the bat.
Not to forget, it was the swashbuckling batting from this right-hander that powered West Indies to the World T20 title against England in Kolkata back in 2016.
His all-round performance will be crucial to his team's chances against Shahid Afridi and Co. at Lords on Thursday. His leadership qualities will also be under the scanner in the game, more so considering the fact that it is a rare, one-off match in the international cricketing scenario.
