ICC T20 World Cup 2024: 5 West Indies players you must have in your Dream11 team
West Indies and USA will co-host the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 in June.
West Indies will be co-hosting the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2024, which will be the second edition that they will be hosting after the 2010 edition. This time, it will be even bigger, as 20 teams will take part in it. The Caribbean team will feature in Group C and will face PNG in their opening clash in Guyana. Playing the World Cup at home will be a brilliant opportunity for them to regain their supremacy in the shortest format.
Not to forget, they were the first team to win the ICC T20 World Cup twice. Rovman Powell will lead them in this tournament, and they have some serious power hitters, which will pose a big headache for the opposition teams. So let’s talk about five West Indies players who should feature in your Dream11 team for ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
Here are the five West Indies stars you must have in your Dream11 teams during ICC T20 World Cup 2024:
5. Brandon King
Brandon King recently led West Indies against South Africa in the three-match T20I series, and they registered a clean sweep. Brandon himself led the team from the front and scored the most runs in the series. He scored 159 runs at an average and strike rate of 53.00 and 167.37, respectively. This performance will boost his confidence heading into the coming event, and you can have him in your team in fantasy cricket platforms.
4. Johnson Charles
Johnson Charles was part of the West Indies teams that won the 2012 and 2016 editions under Darren Sammy. He is one of their most experienced batters and has played in different situations throughout his career. Charles is known for his power hitting at the top, and he plays generally in one gear. He can be a make-or-break player for your fantasy team; not many might pick him, so you can make the difference and win the competitions.
3. Nicholas Pooran
Nicholas Pooran was exceptional with his form in the recently concluded Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. He scored 499 runs at an average and strike rate of 62.37 and 178.21, with 36 sixes. Pooran has hit most T20 sixes in 2024, and he is unstoppable when he gets going. He will be a threat to the opposition bowlers because he will be playing in his own conditions and can dismantle any bowling attack. So you must pick him while making your Dream11 team.
2. Rovman Powell
Rovman Powell will be leading West Indies in the tournament. He bats at No. 5 or 6, but he is a consistent performer under pressure. After becoming the captain, his stats have improved drastically. Powell knows the conditions well, and he can use them to good effect. Furthermore, he also bowls at a medium pace and is a smart bowler. That is why he is someone you should not drop while making Dream11 team.
1. Andre Russell
Andre Russell will be the first choice player you would want in your side as a captain in Dream11 teams for ICC T20 World Cup 2024. He is the biggest match-winner for West Indies in this squad and is coming off a successful IPL 2024 campaign for Kolkata Knight Riders. Russell scored 222 runs at a strike rate of 185 and took 19 wickets as well. You will also find him diving around and taking spectacular catches. So just pick him as your Dream11 team captain, because he can collect points in all three departments.
