Nicholas Pooran to lead the West Indies Cricket Team:
Nicholas Pooran will be leading the West Indies Cricket Team for the first time in his career. The reason this gets a special mention is that Nicholas is relatively a less-experienced player. The team is filled with Superstars like Russell, Holder, Lendl Simmons, and Odean Smith. It will be a tough task for Nicholas to manage all these superstars. Kieron Pollard announced his international retirement and as a consequence, this role has been given to Nicholas Pooran. ?
