ICC World T20 2016: Team of the tournament

West Indies became the first team to claim the World T20 twice as they beat England in the final in Kolkata. The tournament that began with a six from Martin Guptill and a New Zealand win ended with another six, this time from Carlos Brathwaite and the West Indies were crowned World champions in the T20 format.

There were plenty of memorable performances in the 2016 ICC World T20 but who were the best performers? Virat Kohli is an obvious pick as the Player of the tournament but who else makes the cut?

Here is the ICC World T20 2016 Team of the tournament:

Quinton de Kock

Quinton de Kock continued his love for playing in India

South Africa may have been dumped out of the tournament in the Super-10 stage but one of the few bright sparks from their tournament was the performance of opening batsman, Quinton de Kock. While one of the biggest talking points going into the tournament was whether AB de Villiers should open the batting, the performance of both Hashim Amla and de Kock ensured that even though AB didn’t, that didn’t matter too much.

Coming into the World T20, the wicketkeeper didn’t have a single T20I fifty to his name. In the first game, he not only got one but also equalled the South African record for the fastest T20I fifty that was held by AB. In the two games that followed he almost made it three fifties in three but unfortunately, wasn’t able to do so.

Although he didn’t fire in the final match, he was the epitome of consistency in the group stage and got his side off to a fast start and ensured the Proteas had the platform they needed, which they ultimately didn’t make the most of.
