One of the most successful WK-batsman of all time, Brendon McCullum is the second payer to feature in this XI.

The New Zealander has a stellar record in all three formats of the game. Brendon amassed 6083 runs in 260 ODIs at an average of 30.41 and a strike rate of 96.37.

The 38-year-old, who used to describe himself as brash, has 6453 runs in 101 Test Matches at an average of 38.64 and a strike rate of 64.6. The Dunedin-born player also has 12 centuries, 2 double hundreds, and 31 fifties in the longest format of the game.

The destructive batsman holds an impressive T20I record as well. McCullum scored 2140 runs in 71 T20Is matches at an average of 35.67 and a strike rate of 136.22. He has two hundreds to his name in the format and is still the 5th highest run-scorer in T20Is even after nearly four years of his retirement.

The T20 specialist played for many domestic teams such as Kolkata Knight Riders, Kochi Tuskers Kerala, Brisbane Heat, Gujarat Lions, Chennai Super Kings, Lahore Qalandars, Rangpur Riders, and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

The former Kiwi skipper bid adieu to international cricket in February 2016.
