Pace Bowlers:

According to you, who is the best pace bowler in T20 Cricket? Comment.

CricGo11 chooses Jasprit Bumrah as the best T20 pace bowler because of his unique ability to bowl in death, taking wickets at the right time, and his variations. Comment your Bowler.

Tom Moody has chosen Mitchell Starc, Jasprit Bumrah and Jofra Archer in the pace bowling department. Surprisingly, he has chosen Jofra Archer in his XI.

Ravindra Jadeja is the XIIth man in the Team "due to his feeling ability" he added. Recently, he was awarded the "Most Valuable Test Player in 21st Century".

When asked about the Captaincy, he chooses Rohit Sharma over Virat as he is the best Captain in the IPL.

He said picking M.S.Dhoni is a no-brainer and he chose Nicholas Pooran as WK over Dhoni. Its a tough decision but considering the current situation, he is one of the best players out there.

He said he would Consider split captaincy for India because

"The only reason I would consider split captaincy is to preserve the longevity of Virat Kohli"
 He said, " Love to Watch Virat Kohli both as Captain and Batsman". Virat Kohli has 65% win percentage across the formats.

England and Australia teams already has split captaincy in limited-overs and Test Cricket. They have Morgan and Root for England, Paine, and Finch for Australia.
