Tunisia is one of the most inexperienced sides in the competition and will be put to the test when they begin their campaign.
Manchester United loanee, Hannibal is the surprise pick in the squad as the 19-year-old heads for his first FIFA World Cup.
The likes of Khazri, Skhiri, Bronna and Talbi are some of the players who play in Europe, due to which they bring in plenty of experience.
