Middle Order

The middle order starts with one of the easiest players to put in the team, Virat Kohli, although we have not given him the captaincy. Kohli is not only in fantastic form at the moment but has incredible T20I stats. With an international average of 50.84 at a strike rate of 137.32, Kohli has also hit four hundreds and an incredible 52 fifties in T20 cricket, making him the ideal number three to not only control the innings, but act as a backbone for the more aggressive counterparts we have chosen, which leads us to our pick for a number four.

Joe Root, Kane Williamson and Glenn Maxwell all came close but we went with AB de Villiers. De Villiers is not in good form at the moment, but as we chose Rohit Sharma, Aaron Finch and Virat Kohli who are all very consistent and in good form, AB de Villiers seems the obvious option to be the destructor of the team. Even though he may go out early, the rest of the team are reliable enough to keep the team on track for a big score and when de Villiers fires, a colossal score is guaranteed. De Villiers has hit more than 6,000 T20 runs with a high score of 133 not out, at an average of 34.46.
