Archer was the most hyped player before the start. Cricket gurus were saying he is a special talent and would be the next big thing in cricket. Even though he didn't bat as well as he would have liked but showed his wicket-taking skills by bowling those fierce yorkers. He took 15 wickets in just 10 matches.

The magician is indeed the best T20 bowler in the world right now. The pace at which he bowls leg-breaks and googlies are tough for batsmen to read and often end up losing their wicket. He took 21 wickets at a phenomenal economy rate of under 7 an over.

Tye is one of the best pace bowlers in the shortest format. The number of variations he possesses makes him difficult to score against. With knuckleballs, slower balls, accurate yorkers he is a complete bowler. The purple cap holder took 24 wickets at an economy rate of 8 an over.

The first international player who is born in the 21st century, Mujeeb is another sensational player from Afghanistan. At only 17 years of age, he is deceiving the legends of the game. The kind of composure he showed in pressure situations is praiseworthy. He took 14 wickets in 11 matches at an economy rate of under 7 an over.

Indians XI: KL Rahul, Ambati Rayudu, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, MS Dhoni (C/WK), Krunal Pandya, Hardik Pandya, Umesh Yadav, Siddharth Kaul, Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav.

Overseas XI: Sunil Narine, Jos Butler(WK), Kane Williamson (c), AB de Villiers, Shane Watson, Andre Russell, Dwayne Bravo, Jofra Archer, Rashid Khan, Andrew Tye, Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
