Left-handed Indian batter Yashasvi Jaiswal, who has had a meteoric rise in both T20Is and Tests, opens alongside England’s Phil Salt
West Indies’ Nicholas Pooran not only bats at one-down but has also been named wicketkeeper of the specially-curated XI
Zimbabwe’s SIkandar Raza is one of the three all-rounders in the side alongside New Zealand’s Mark Chapman and Uganda’s Alpesh Ramjani
Wrist-spinner Ravi Bishnoi, who’s been having a stellar run since the T20I series against Australia right after the ICC World Cup, has been included as the only frontline spinner in the XI
Left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh heads the pace department that comprises Richard Ngarava and Ireland’s Mark Adair, who is slotted at 8 due to his handy batting skills
