All-time best T20 XI around the world

10. Dale Steyn

Predaceous, brutish, and dreadful, Dale Steyn is a phenomenal pacer from South Africa. As if his vulturine eyes and pumped-up nerves are not enough to frighten his adversaries, he ensures to rip them off with extreme pace and vicious swing.

An adroit ability to move the ball both ways coupled with furious pace makes him nearly unplayable on many occasions. To watch Steyn charging in with his front-on action, bending his back to the fullest to launch a ferocious ‘jaffa’ is a sheer delight. Given a svelte physique, Steyn also adds value as an impressive fielder.

The champion pacer has made his name in every format of the game without an exception. In a memorable career of 15 years, the 37-year-old has played 220 matches and has scalped 256 wickets at a marvellous economy of 6.75.
