Best XI of the retired players who were a part of the 2015 World Cup 

All-Rounders- Shane Watson and Shahid Afridi

Watson was an instrumental all-rounder

One of the finest limited overs all-rounders of the modern era, Shane Watson was an ideal package for ODI cricket. Starting his career in the middle order, he was pushed to the top, where he played some of his most destructive innings, but again batted in the middle towards the end of his career.

Making his debut in 2002, Watson had an injury-prone 13-year career, when he was completely out of action from 2005 to 2008. In 190 ODIs, he scored 5757 runs at an average of 40.54 and picked as many as 168 wickets at an impressive economy of 4.96.

Pakistan v the United Arab Emirates - 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup

Shahid Afridi, though controversial, was one of the finest players to play for Pakistan. Scoring the fastest ever ODI hundred (until Corey Anderson broke his record in 2014) as a sixteen-year-old in just his second ODI, his explosive batting prowess overshadowed his leg spin.

In a career spanning more than 20 years, Afridi played 398 ODIs, picking 395 wickets and scoring 8064 runs, numbers which put him in the list of all-time great all-rounders. Like Watson, Afridi was pushed to open after starting as a lower order batsman, but during later half of his career, Afridi mostly played as a finisher.

With Afridi coming in at 8, the batting holds great depth and he is also the only wrist spinner in the squad.
