After the likes of Shakib Al Hasan, and Rashid Khan, Hardik Pandya and Dinesh Karthik have also been added to the World XI ahead of its charity match against West Indies. The match will take place at the Lord’s Cricket Ground on May 31.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) acting secretary, Amitabh Chaudhury, confirmed their participation on Wednesday.

“Hardik and Dinesh will be part of the World XI team for the charity match,” Chaudhury reportedly said.

The team also consists of Tamim Iqbal, Thisara Perera, Shahid Afridi, and Shoaib Malik. Eoin Morgan will be leading the team filled with players from this sub-continent.

A T20 match will be played between the Caribbean side and the Rest of the World XI in order to raise funds to rebuild and restore five major venues in the Caribbean island by Hurricanes Irma and Maria.

The venues include Ronald Webster Park in Anguilla, the Sir Viv Richards Stadium in Antigua, the Windsor Park Stadium in Dominica, the A.O. Shirley Recreation Ground in the British Virgin Islands and the Carib Lumber Ball Park in St. Maarten.
