India fast bowler Mohammed Shami has replaced India all-rounder Hardik Pandya in the ICC World XI squad that will play a fund-raising Twenty20 

International match against West Indies at Lord's Cricket Ground on May 31. Apart from Shami, England wrist-spinner Adil Rashid has also been added to the ICC World XI squad. Shami will join Dinesh Karthik as the second India player in the squad after Pandya pulled out of the tournament due to a viral infection. Rashid is the second England player to feature in the star-studded batting line-up of the World XI squad led by Eoin Morgan.

Apart from two players from India and England, the World XI squad includes one player each from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka, and two players each from New Zealand and Pakistan.

Shami has represented India in seven T20Is in which he has picked up eight wickets. He also featured in the ICC Champions Trophy 2017 where India finished runners-up.
