An underrated bowler, Samuel Badree has been a consistent performer for West Indies in the shortest format. The No.1 T20 bowler in the ICC Rankings for quite a while now, Badree will look to use his variations to unsettle the star-studded Indian batting line-up in America. Badree has a total of 40 wickets in his 28 international T20 matches at an astonishing average of 14.70 per wicket. He also has a terrific economy rate conceding runs well below 6 runs an over.
A bowler made for the shorter format, Badree has the ability to vary his pace considerably and has a terrific googly up his sleeve. He has troubled batsmen from all over the world on a consistent basis in the shortest format and has picked up 144 wickets in as many matches in the T20 format across all competitions.

Arya Sekhar Chakraborty
Arya is a cricket journalist with around 8 years of experience who writes informative listicles and is in charge of text commentary at Sportskeeda. He is a graduate in Journalism, Psychology, and English, and has previously worked for websites such as CricTracker, SportzWiki, Cricket Addictor, Cricfit, OneCricket, and Cricket Exchange. His vast experience has led him to know the pulse of his readers and he cross-checks information from a number of credible sources before writing a single word for their sake.
A former Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) U14 and U16 player, Arya's tryst with cricket began after watching Sachin Tendulkar in action during his childhood. He is an ardent fan of Mumbai Indians (MI) owing to Tendulkar's initial involvement and also bleeds blue for his national team. He is an admirer of Test cricket as he feels the red-ball format teaches one about every facet of life.
Arya, who feels ODIs should not be completely replaced with T20Is owing to the former's pacing and charm, would like to go back in time to 1998 and watch the Master Blaster in action. He has experience in interviewing a few Bengali cricketers such as Kazi Junaid Saifi, Shib Shankar Pal, Sayan Ghosh and Prayas Ray Barman. He has also translated a couple of Bengali cricket books, and made Indian Premier League (IPL) pre-match videos.
He likes to spend time with his family and binge on web series during his spare time.
