The biggest name being talked about in the Caribbean team is that of explosive all-rounder Andre Russell. There was already a lot of discussion about Andre Russell that he could be selected in the T20 World Cup team. Russell recently returned to the West Indies team. He also performed brilliantly with the bat in the T20 series against Australia. Currently Russell is playing for Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League.
