Pick your side: Twenty20 World XI

As the ICC World Twenty20 enters its second phase, teams participating in the Super Eights will try to shape up their best squads for the all important matches. South Asian teams will rely heavily on their spinners to help restrict the opposition while the likes of South Africa and New Zealand will hope their star fielders produce moments of brilliance.

Dawn.com asks you to pick your World Twenty20 XI. Will Ireland’s Trent Johnston find a place in your squad or will T20 stars like Rohit Sharma and Brendon McCullum rule your team sheet.

Give us your squads and at the end of the tournament, we’ll give you a Dawn.com readers’ XI. Eleven players who were most frequently picked by our readers.
