The name of players for the Test team and ODI team of the year 2016 was announced where so many good players managed to secure place in the teams. Pakistan may have climbed to the top of the ICC’s Test Rankings this year, but none of their players managed to secure a place in the ICC Test team as well as ODI Team.
According to International Cricket Council (ICC), England’s Alastair Cook has been named the captain of the ICC Test Team of the Year, which includes three other Englishmen (Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes), four Australians (David Warner, Mitchell Starc, Steve Smith, Adam Voges), and a player each from New Zealand (Kane Williamson), from India (Ravichandran Ashwin), from Sri Lanka (Rangana Herath) and from South Africa (Dale Steyn), while Virat Kohli has been named as captain of the ICC ODI Team of the Year, which includes two other Indians ( Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja), three Australians (David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Mitchell Starc), four South Africans (Quinton de Kock, AB de Villiers, Kagiso Rabada, Imran Tahir) and one each from England (Jos Buttler) and from West Indies (Sunil Narine).
It is really a shocking announcement for the fans of green shirt that no one from the team make place in teams of the years and we hope that next year our players will not make us disappointed rather they will show brilliant performance in their upcoming matches which can help them to secure place in the teams of the year of 2017.
