- Johnson Charles:
Johnson Charles is best known for his special affection for the Indian bowlers, as witnessed in the semi-final of the 2016 ICC World T20, where his half-century powered West Indies’ run chase at Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.
A clean striker of the cricket ball, Charles has consistently done well for the Calypso Kings and can be relied on to provide the fireworks right at the top. He is at ease against the pacers as well as the slower bowlers, as was evident in the previous World T20.
Charles was a common face in West Indies’ dual World T20 wins in 2012 as well as 2016. His last half century in T20I’s came against India at Florida last year, as he tore into the Indian bowlers, smashing 79 off just 33 deliveries.
