Saim Ayub Not Included In Babar Azam's Dream T20I World XI
The team features a balance of experienced players and young talent, with a strong emphasis on batting and bowling. The inclusion of players from six countries highlights the global nature of the sport, and the selection process demonstrates the challenges of choosing a dream team from a pool of talented players.
Babar Azam, the Pakistan star batter, has picked his dream T20I World XI, featuring players from six countries, with Rohit Sharma and Mohammad Rizwan as openers, and a mix of players from various countries, including Fakhar Zaman, Suryakumar Yadav, and Jos Buttler.
The team includes a strong pace attack, featuring Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Mark Wood, while Rashid Khan from Afghanistan takes the number eight spot. The middle order is completed by South African duo David Miller and Marco Jansen. Notably, Virat Kohli is surprisingly left out of the team, despite being one of India's greatest-ever players.
Babar Azam's selection comes after he was recently trolled online by England batter Sam Billings for his slowest half-century in PSL 2025. The Pakistan star picked a mix of players from various countries, including two Indians, Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav. No Sri Lankan player was selected for the team, and Lasith Malinga was also overlooked.
The selection of the World XI team has sparked interest and debate among cricket fans, with many discussing the inclusion and exclusion of various players. The team's composition reflects Babar Azam's preferences and opinions on the best players in the T20 format.
