Cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar picked up the best Playing XI of IPL 2016 based on individual performances.
David Warner (SRH) and Ajinkya Rahane (Pune) were chosen as Openers. What came as a surprise was Gavaskar asking Virat Kohli to bat at One Down, inspite of his terrific form as a Opener for RCB in this season.
AB de Villiers (RCB), Yousuf Pathan (KKR) and Dhoni (Pune) form the Middle-Order. KKR's Andre Russel fits into the All-Rounder Slot.
In the bowling department, We have three SRH Cricketers Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mustafizur Rahman and Ashish Nehra in the line up. The only Spinner in the squad is RCB's Yuzvendra Chahal who claimed 21 wickets playing just 14 matches. On paper, This Team lookslike it could be any team in the World.
IPL 2016 Sunil Gavaskar's Playing XI: Warner, Rahane, Kohli, ABD, Y.Pathan, Dhoni, Russell, Bhuvneshwar, Chahal, Mustafizur, Nehra
