Duckett (Eng), Ibrahim (Afg), Ravindra (NZ), Kohli (Ind), Axar (Ind), Latham (NZ, wk), Hardik (Ind), Azmatullah (Afg), Santner (NZ, capt), Henry (NZ), Chakravarthy (Ind).

Much depends on where this fictional team plays – but given the tournament has been split between the flatter tracks of Pakistan and the turning surfaces of Dubai, I’ve gone for a team for all seasons.

The spin of Axar Patel and Santner may be similar in style, but Varun Chakravarthy offers enough variation to be about five spinners in one. Matt Henry has been a standout as a seamer, here supported by Azmatullah Omarzai and Hardik Pandya, who are more than capable to bowl 10 overs each.

Kohli is a must as a master of the chase, while Duckett accumulated top-order runs in a side that otherwise struggled. Ibrahim Zadran’s 177 against England should go down as one of the great ODI knocks.
