Jagadish Pai Mp Ashih Nehra and Anil kumble don't suit for 20- 20 guys u know kumble's fielding over the years yuvraj singh is out of from and jacques kallis is no way a 20-20 player its all junk players like symonds, ross taylor, AB devillers who performed well have been left out and all rounder of the class of fintoff who suits for all forms of game are not there i feel shane ware and muttaiah are far better then kumble in spin dept and dhoni is wold no1 in ODI ranking and hes not included its redicelous

Dilip Krishnan By including Adam Gilchrist and excluding Dhoni, itimes is indicating that Gilchrist is the captain of the Dream Team. I had also thought over it and preferred Dhoni in my dream team since I did not like the idea of a foreigner as captain. Also inclusion of Jaques Kallis does not seem justified. He bats high in the order which he cant in the dream team with Gilchrist, Raina and Rohit Sharma and Yuvraj around. Dwayne Bravo would have been a better choice but I preferred a fiery pace bowler and chose Brett Lee instead. He did well in the few games he played. Rest of the team is ok. So instead of Gilchrist I had included Sehwag. One has to consider past performance also in deciding the dream team.

Tanmay08 Aarey... these girls...! Why do they comment on something they don't understand!!!

See this is a dream team... a wishlist .. there is no question of Gilchrist getting injured... There is no place for 2 wicketkeeper batsman in a 11 member T20 team... and Gilchrist is far better than Dhoni on either side of the wickets

having an expensive (iconic) player as a backup wicktkeper b'man or a backup captain is a ridiculous idea...! Is there any such team in the world !!!

that place should be filled up by a specialist batsman / bowler or a allrounder...

I would rather say one player should have been included - AB De Villiers... instead of Yuvraj Singh..

Nupur Tripathy Yes, I think Dhoni definitely should have been included!!
This is a very random selection!
How can anyone decide that this is the correct 11 & not some other combination??
It varies from person to person!!

Laila Majnu He is such a great batsman... why didn't you guys include him!!! He would have been better than Yuvraj Singh / Yusuf Pathan....
Secondly he is a good captain too... you seem to have been carried away by the fact that Gilchrist has won the IPL this year.

But think of a scenarion when Gilchrist might get injured....

Had you but included Dhoni in the team he could captain the team and also stand behind the wickets...

No ! I can't agree with you guys..
