Former West Indies all-format cricketer Xavier Marshall shifted his base to US cricket a few years ago and is reaping the benefits with his top-class batting. Marshall has 584 T20 runs in 31 innings. He has also scored 1720 runs in List A cricket in 84 innings. His best score of 157* would give nightmares to the opposition bowlers.

#1 Nikhil Kanchan (MWT)

Midwest skipper Nikhil Kanchan is one of the budding cricketing prospects in USA cricket. He has so far scored 3664 runs in T20 cricket in 92 innings at an average of 46.38 and also smacked 702 runs in 11 50-over innings with an average of 78.
