Right from the start of the inaugural T20 world cup, we have seen some players who have performed exceptionally well and have cemented their place in the all time playing 11. So, this is my all time playing 11 till now.
- ROHIT SHARMA
For the openers we have Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul. There is absolutely no doubt in having Rohit Sharma in the side. HITMAN has been quite impressive in the shorter formats of the game. His six-hitting ability and explosive batting style completely justify his name ‘Ro-Superhit Sharma’.
- KL RAHUL
Alongside Rohit, KL Rahul comes in to open the innings. We had other options like Gautam Gambhir and Shikhar Dhawan but when you have Kamaal Lajawab Rahul, then you don’t have to look for others. Raul has proved to be an absolute match-winner for the Indian team in the 20-over cricket format.
- VIRAT KOHLI
THE CHASE MASTER, VIRAT KOHLI IS OUR FIRST CHOICE FOR NUMBER 3 and We are sure there would be no debate on this. WHETHER IT IS BUILDING A TOUGH knock OR CHASING AN IMPOSSIBLE LOOKING SCORE, HE MADE ALL OF IT. VIRAT KOHLI IS THE ONLY CURRENT INDIAN BATSMAN to have an AVERAGE over 50 IN T20I CRICKET. Kohli WILL ALSO BE the VICE CAPTAIN for this side.
- YUVRAJ SINGH
OUR SIX MACHINE AND A FIGHTER YUVRAJ SINGH WILL COME AT NUMBER 4. The man who hit six 6s in an over off Stuart Broad is a must to have in India’s all-time t20I xi. HE ALSO won THE MAN OF THE tournament award IN THE INAUGURAL edition ICC WORLD T20. Yuvi can also bowl some left-arm orthodox in the middle of the innings that provides a great balance to the team.
- SURESH RAINA
Another left left-hander in the form of Suresh Raina will complete our middle order. GREAT FIELDER, GREAT FOOTWORK AGAINST SPINNERS AND AN EFFECTIVE PART-TIME BOWLER. He has got everything to find a spot in this playing xi. Raina is a proven match-winner as he has PLAYED SOME GREAT KNOCKS FOR THE TEAM IN DIFFICULT SITUATIONS. HE HAS ALSO THE FIRST Indian BATSMAN WHO SCORED CENTURY IN T20is.
- MS DHONI
One of the greatest finishers of all-time, MS dhoni is there at number 6. Not just a great finisher, but also a magnificent wicket keeper and captain, Dhoni is an absolute legend of the game. Dinesh Karthik also has a decent record in this format but ab jab baat Dhoni pe aa Jaye toh kahi aur Jaane ki zarurat nahi. You can’t imagine an Indian without the man who won all the three ICC trophies for the nation.
- HARDIK PANDYA
After A LOT OF CONFUSION between JADEJA OR HARDIK, we decided to go for Pandya, owing to his better batting records. Hardik has a natural ability to absolutely tonk the bowlers out of the park and at number 7, you need a similar kind of player. India has not had many great fast bowling all-rounders after Kapil Dev and Irfan Pathan but Pandya has got all the right ingredients to walk on that path.
- R ASHWIN
After pipping bowlers like Kuldeep Yadav and Harbhajan Singh, Ashwin would be our first spinner for this Indian all-time t20i xi. The off-spinner TOOK T20I 52 WICKETS WITH AN AVERAGE OF 22. He is one of those rare spinners who can bowl in the powerplay as well and claim some early wickets for the team.
- BHUVNESHWAR KUMAR
Bhuvneshwar Kumar joins the side to lead the pace attack in terms of experience. With really tough competition between Bhuvi and Nehra Ji, we went for Bhuvi. He has a much better economy rate and no matter whom we pick, our SRH fans will get a treat seeing any one of them bowl.
- YUZI CHAHAL
Wrist spinners are always effective in the shorter formats aur ab baat jab wrist spinners ki ho rhi h toh yes, you guessed it right, we are talking about Yuzi Chahal. CHAHAL’S RECORD IN T20 CRICKET FROM PAST 4 YEARS HAVE BEEN VERY IMPRESSIVE AND HE HAS ALSO DELIVERED SOME BEST PERFORMANCES FOR THE TEAM. He is also the second spinner to take six wickets in T20I innings.
- JASPRIT BUMRAH
Boom boom Bumrah completes our greatest Indian XI for the t20is. POPULARLY KNOWN AS TOE CRUSHER, Burmah is the current BEST BOWLER FOR INDIA IN T20 CRICKET. He has more t20I wickets than any other Indian bowler right now. With death specialists like Bhuvi and Bumrah, the opposition is going to face a lot of problems to score runs at the end.
