In a format which has revolutionized the game as we know it, the requirement of pinch-hitters, unorthodox strokes and variations with the ball has grown vastly as the T20 format has been implemented and developed. Here is my T20 top XI:
Chris Gayle
Virender Sehwag
Michael Hussey
Yuvraj Singh
Eoin Morgan
MS Dhoni (captain) (wk)
Daniel Vettori
Johan Botha
Dale Steyn
Lasith Malinga
Zaheer Khan
Tests- The perenial and most challenging format of the game, the five-day tests require accurate bowling, skillful and planned batting and fitness to play for up to 40 hours in 5 days. Here are an XI that provide the absolute best in all three. By the way, England are the world's number 1 test nation, so don't be surprised too much.
Andrew Strauss(captain)
Alistair Cook
Rahul Dravid
Sachin Tendulkar
Jacques Kallis
Ian Bell
Matt Prior (wk)
Graeme Swann
James Anderson
Dale Steyn
Zaheer Khan
ODI- The 50 over format requires a balance between the requirements of the Test and T20 formats. Here is an XI that this year, has proved to be the best at ODIs.
Tillakeratne Dilshan
Sachin Tendulkar
Jacques Kallis
Ross Taylor
AB De Villiers
Eoin Morgan
MS Dhoni (captain) (wk)
Shahid Afridi
Daniel Vettori
Dale Steyn
Zaheer Khan
