World Xi Cricket Team News

Bangladesh Cricket Board on Wednesday decided to postpone the matches between Asia XI and World XI due to the global spread of coronavirus. The likes of Virat Kohli and Chris Gayle were expected to take part in the invitational T20I matches to mark the birthday celebrations of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

Due to their PSL commitments, Pakistan players are not going to be part of the much-anticipated two-match T20I series between Asia XI and World XI to be played in Dhaka in March 2020. The tentative squad for Asia XI includes players from India, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Nepal.

The new Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Stadium, commonly known as Motera stadium is capable of holding 1.10 lakh people and will be the world’s largest cricket stadium overtaking the capacity of MCG. It is now about ICC’s approval, with its inauguration being the much-anticipated World XI vs Asia XI game.
