Tymal Mills added to ICC World XI squad

Sussex fast bowler Tymal Mills has been added to the ICC World XI squad for the Twenty20 International against the Windies at Lord’s on 31st May. 

The 25-year-old joins the likes of Shahid Afridi, Sam Curran and our Vitality Blast overseas signing Rashid Khan in the World XI squad, with all the proceeds from the match being used to redevelop stadia in the Carribbean, which were damaged due to hurricanes last year.

Mills and Surrey's Curran are the latest additions to the star-studded event, following the news England's limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan has been forced to pull out of the squad due to a fractured finger. 

The current T20 world champions will also boast some impressive talent when they take to the field on Thursday, with power-hitter Chris Gayle and captain Carlos Brathwaite at their disposal. 

Sussex fans will be excited to see Mills and Khan on the same side, ahead of this summer's Vitality Blast campaign, and it will be an opportunity for the pair to share a dressing room before they are teammates in Hove this July.
