Legendary Indian domestic opener, Wasim Jaffer, has picked th🧸e best XI in the T20I format with the criteria of c🌺hoosing only one player from each country.
Jaffer named Dav𝔍id Warner from Australia upfront, who opens the bat♐ting for his nation in all formats of the game.
From Paki🌜stan, Jaffer took the obꦛvious name of Babar Azam, who has ruled the T20I ranking charts for a notable tenure.
At the crucial number thre💝e position, Jaffer picked New Zealand captain Kane Williamson, followed by AB de Villier🌺s from South Africa.
Interestingly, Jaffer elected Jasprit Bumrah from India ahead of Virat Kohli. As a result, the popularly acclaimed best batter in the world could not make thꦕe cuౠt into the XI at the top order.
Similarly, ahead of the all-round dimension offered by Ben Stokes, Jaffer included Jos Buttler from England into the XI. Also, Buttler dons the wicket-keeping duties in Jaffer’s XI.
From West Indies, ahead of legends such as Dwayne Bravo, Kieron Pollard and Chris Gayle,♕ Jaffer named KKR ace Andre Russell in the XI.
Further, from Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Nepal, Jaffer selected Shakib al Hasan, Rashid Khan and Sandeep Lamichhanne. The trio has been prolific when it comes to wღicket-taking abilities in the shortest format of the game.
The pace attack of Jaffer’s XI is bolstered by Bumrah and Sri Lanka veteran Lasith Malinga.
