Retired Legends Shine in Tabraiz Shamsi's All-Time T20I XI

In a recent conversation, former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) spinner Tabraiz Shamsi has unveiled his all-time T20I XI. The 35-year-old South African cricketer's dream team is headlined by several retired superstars of the game.

Shamsi has chosen West Indies legend Chris Gayle and his compatriot Quinton de Kock as the opening pair. At number three, he has picked Indian batting great Virat Kohli, who retired from T20Is in 2024 after leading India to the T20 World Cup title. The middle order is dominated by former South African stalwarts AB de Villiers and Faf du Plessis.

Shamsi has named ex-India captain MS Dhoni, who led the team to victory in the inaugural 2007 T20 World Cup, as the skipper and wicketkeeper of the side. The Proteas spinner has also included retired West Indies all-rounder Andre Russell, who featured in two T20 World Cup-winning squads for the Caribbean side.
