4. England (Batters - Jos Buttler, Liam Livingstone, Moeen Ali; Bowler-Chris Jordan) - 8.5/10

Jos Buttler is one of the most destructive batters in T20 cricket. The wicket-keeper batter is England’s 360-degree player and can take any attack to the cleaners. He has been striking at 143.97 in 95 T20Is and has hit 100 sixes. The 32-year-old was given the super over role in the 50-over World Cup against New Zealand and he scored seven runs off three deliveries. He will again be expected to play a blistering cameo if need be at the upcoming marquee event.

Liam Livingstone and Moeen Ali can be the right fit to share the Super Over responsibilities with England’s skipper. Livingstone is renowned for his six-hitting abilities and can dismantle any bowling attack on a given day. Moeen on the other hand has grown into the role of a finisher and can hit lusty blows in crunch situations. This is what will be needed from the southpaw in the one-over shootout.

Chris Jordan has been England’s specialist bowler at the fag end of the innings. The veteran bowler mixes his lengths and speeds cunningly to fox batters at the death. The 32-year-old bowled one of the best super overs in international cricket against Pakistan in 2015 where the Men in Green could only score three runs off his over. In the upcoming T20 World Cup as well, the Three Lions are expected to give him the role in the six-ball contest.
