When selecting his starting XI, Yuvraj—who is still among the most decorated cricket players in history—made some logical choices. Among Indian hitters, players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Sachin Tendulkar made the cut.
The opening batsmen for him were Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting, with Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli coming in at No. 3 and No. 4, respectively. Yuvraj selected AB de Villiers at number five, and Adam Gilchrist, the specialist wicket-keeper, at number six.

In the championship game, the Yuvraj-led squad proved why they were the best by winning a close battle between two very competitive teams. After winning the toss, the Pakistani Champions chose to bat first and amassed a respectable score of 156/6 in 20 overs.

The middle-order collapsed and Misbah-ul-Haq was retired hurt after a brisk 18, late contributions from Sohail Tanvir (19* off 9) ensured Pakistan posted a respectable score.
Indian bowlers, led by Anureet Singh who claimed three wickets with support from Vinay Kumar, Pawan Negi and Irfan Pathan (one wicket each) were instrumental in containing Pakistan’s batting lineup.

India Champions responded by deliberately beginning their run chase. Even though Ambati Rayudu lost Robin Uthappa (10) early in the innings, his brilliant fifty off thirty balls laid the groundwork for the Men in Blue’s chase.
In the same over, Suresh Raina also left cheaply for four, aiding Pakistan’s recovery. However, Rayudu and Gurkeerat Singh Maan’s (34 off 33) solid combination kept India in the game.
Rayudu and Mann also departed in a space of 10 runs but the momentum stayed firmly in India’s favour with Yusuf Pathan’s blistering 30 off 16 balls before the latter was dismissed in the penultimate over.
Yuvraj Singh’s All-Time XI:
Sachin Tendulkar, Ricky Ponting, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Adam Gilchrist (wk), Andre Flintoff, Shane Warne, Mutttiah Muralitharan, Glenn McGrath, Wasim Akram. Yuvraj Singh (12th man)
