A Caribbean Select XI will take on a Trinidad side in Port of Spain on October 14 to raise funds for the victims of recent hurricanes in the Caribbean. The Trinidad side will be captained by Kieron Pollard, while St Lucia's Darren Sammy will lead the Caribbean Select XI in the charity match themed 'Rebuilding the Caribbean one over at a time'. Alongside the proceeds from ticket sales - a tickets cost $100 - containers will be placed around the ground to collect canned items and clothing.
The move sustains fundraising efforts that took place during the ODI series between West Indies and England. Members of the West Indies team management, such as Joel Garner, could be seen during games taking collection buckets around the crowd. It is understood that all members of the playing squad have contributed.
