T20 World Cup: West Indies will miss all-rounder Fabian Allen as he has been ruled out with an ankle injury. Left-arm spinner Akeal Hosein joins the 15-man squad ahead of their 2nd warm-up match on Wednesday.
West Indies suffered a big blow as all-rounder Fabian Allen was ruled out of T20 World Cup 2021 due to an ankle injury. The defending champions named Akeal Hosein as Allen's replacement and the move was approved by the Event Technical Committee on Wednesday.
West Indies will miss Fabien Allen's firepower in the T20 World Cup as the all-rounder, ranked 17th on ICC T20I charts, has been delivering with both the bat and the ball over the last few years. Alongside a T20I bowling average of 27.05 and economy of 7.21, he also has a batting strike rate of 138.88 and average of 17.85, while being a firm contender for the title of the world’s greatest fielder.
