Best T20 XI of the 21st century

South Africa v West Indies - 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup

Dwayne Bravo

New Zealand v West Indies - Game 1

The fun-loving West Indian all-rounder is probably one of the best all-rounders to play this format of the game.

At the beginning of his career, he was known more for his batting than his bowling. However, as his career progressed, he became one of the best T20 bowlers in the world, especially at the death.

With 433 wickets in 396 matches, he tops the list of the most number of wickets taken in this format. He has also scored nearly 6000 runs.

Sunil Narine

Sri Lanka v West Indies - ICC World Twenty20 2012 Final

The mystery spinner has had a turbulent career, having been suspended on multiple occasions for his bowling action. However, he has always come back strong and made a name for himself by constantly picking up wickets.

He also has one of the best economy rates in this format of the game. He has picked up a total of 334 wickets in 287 matches.

He can also chip in with the bat as we have seen in the BBL and IPL. He is more than capable of opening the batting and smashing the bowlers.
