May 29 (CRICKETNMORE) - Shahid Afridi has been appointed as the captain of the ICC World XI side that will play against the Windies at Lord’s on Thursday after Eoin Morgan was ruled out after suffering a finger fracture in his right hand.

The injury also means Morgan will miss Middlesex’s match against Hampshire in the Royal London One-Day Cup 2018 on Wednesday, but is expected to be back in action well before the ODI series against Australia starts on 13 June at The Oval.
