The West Indies cricket team has received a boost with the official approval of Kyle Mayers as a replacement for the injured Brandon King in their T20 World Cup squad. The announcement was made by the ICC in a statement on Friday, June 21st.
Brandon King out with Injury
Brandon King, who suffered a side strain while batting against England on Wednesday, was forced to retire hurt and subsequently ruled out of the remaining T20 World Cup. His absence left a significant gap in the batting line-up.
Kyle Mayers: Seasoned replacement
Stepping up to fill the void is left-handed batter Kyle Mayers. An experienced player with 37 T20 Internationals under his belt, Mayers brings both power and stability to the West Indies batting order. His inclusion is expected to bolster the team’s middle order.
