Kings XI Punjab v Deccan Chargers - IPL

T Suman

A former middle-order batsman, T Suman, because of his experience and technique, gets into the franchise all-time XI. The player was part of the team that lifted the IPL in 2009. Suman made 43 IPL appearances for four franchises but still managed to win the trophy on two occasions.

He also experienced a triumphant campaign with the new Hyderabad franchise - Sunrisers Hyderabad, in 2016.

Like Laxman, Venugopal Rao only played for three years with the Deccan Chargers. During his time with the Hyderabad franchise, he won the title in 2009.

He then moved to Delhi Daredevils for another three seasons before being picked up by the new Hyderabad franchise, SRH, for the 2014 season.
