Best T20 XI for all the teams since the first ever T20 international

1. Australia

Michael Hussey roars after pulling off a stunning win in the semi-final

Perhaps the only format in which an ICC title is waiting for Australia. Australia have had a few good performances in the ICC World T20, including reaching a final in one of them, but a champions' crown had been a step or two out of their grasp.

It still doesn't take away the fact that Australia currently holds the highest score in a T20 international when they scored 263 against Sri Lanka. They also hold the record for the highest successful chase in a T20 international.

Aaron Finch of Australia holds the record for the highest individual score by a batsman in a T20 international. We take a look at their best XI in the shortest format.
