The 19-year-old - who is positioned number one in the International Cricket Council (ICC) T20 knocking down some pins rankings - said he was regarded to be chosen for the match on May 31 against a side who had contributed such a great amount to the game.
"It involves significant privilege and pride for me and my nation that I have been upheld one of cricket's most seasoned and most faithful individuals," he said in an announcement.
"I don't figure it will be wrong to state that various cricketers from this and past ages were motivated and pulled in to cricket because of the heroics of the West Indies sides of the 70s, 90s.
"What's more, if the West Indies are presently viewing us for help, at that point there shouldn't be a faltering for even a moment."
