The change T20 format has brought to the game remains unparalleled.

3. Virat Kohli

This man’s presence in every XI this decade is a must, as his stats suggest. Virat Kohli managed to top the run-scoring charts in both the limited-overs formats and during his exemplary knock against Bangladesh, he became the first cricketer to score more than 2500 runs in all forms of the game. With time and power to add, he perhaps has a lot of such exploits to give his fans.
What makes the Indian captain so special in this format is his ability to maintain composure, not go for the big hits all the time and teaching the world that finding gaps still has relevance in the fast-paced format. No one can forget what he did to South Africa in the 2014 World T20 semifinal or what happened in the 2016 World T20 group stage game against Australia.
Coming to the most exciting part of his writeups, the stats. In the 73 games he has played for the country, he piled up 2,544 runs at an average better than any other cricketer with more than 500 runs to his name. This includes a staggering 23 half-centuries and he registered a career-best score of 94 against the Windies just a few days ago.
