Dubai: The Indian captain Virat Kohli is generally regarded as one of the most consistent players in any T20 team. But former India spinner Harbhajan Singh has been selected as the best T20I team of all time, excluding King Kohli. Kohli has scored 3227 runs in 93 international T20s at an average of 52.05 with 29 fifties. Bhaji has announced a team that includes both current and retired players. Harbhajan released his XI in a video posted on Twitter. Team India’s World Cup hero Yuvraj Singh was also left out of the squad.
Harbhajan has replaced Virat Kohli with English batsman Jose Butler in his squad for the third time.
According to Harbhajan, Buttler is a player who can crush his opponents on his own if he stays at the crease.
Harbhajan XI will be captained by MS Dhoni, the legendary captain who led Team India to the World Cup.
The XI is the opening alliance that no one fears. Hitman Rohit Sharma and Universe boss Chris Gayle will start the innings.
Mr. 360 AB de Villiers is fifth, while Australian all-rounder Shane Watson is fourth.
MS Dhoni arrives at the crease as the sixth wicket-keeper-batsman. The explosive all-rounders will follow.
Next in line are the Windies trio of Dwayne Bravo, Kieron Pollard and Sunil Narine.
Among the bowlers, Harbhajan XI included only star pacer Jaspreet Bumra from India.
Along with Bumrah, Sri Lankan legend Lasith Malinga is the fast bowler. Malinga was a nightmare for his opponents with the Yorkers.
