Two-time International Cricket Council (ICC) World Twenty20 (WT20) Champions West Indies will have an uphill task when they face a star-studded World XI today in the Hurricane Relief T20 challenge at Lord’s.

With eight players from their successful 2016 WT20 campaign, West Indies appear a formidable team while the World XI features a squad of match winners.

Proceeds from the match will go towards redeveloping five stadia in the Caribbean which were damaged by Hurricanes Irma and Maria last year.

Stabroek Sports takes a look at the key players who will help to make today’s event a memorable one.
