Sunrisers Hyderabad captain David Warner excluded Yuvraj Singh and Shane Watson from his all-time India-Australia Indian Premier League (IPL) XI.  

Being fair with Warner, with so many options available it was tough to include every big name in the XI. 

The Aussie cricketer was in an interview with Harsha Bhogle for Cricbuzz when he named Rohit Sharma as his opener in the India-Australia IPL XI. He also picked India captain Virat Kohli, and Chennai Super Kings' Suresh Raina, at the no.4 position.

Raina is a permanent batsman for CSK at number 3 but with Kohli in, Warner pushed his position to four. He picked Glenn Maxwell and added MS Dhoni in the side as a wicket-keeper and put him in the batting position at number 7. 

Surprisingly, the fast bowling attack had Ashish Nehra, Mitchell Starc, and Jasprit Bumrah.  For the spin department, he couldn't pick between Kuldeep Yadav or Yuzvendra Chahal and put them both in, adding they will be chosen as per the situation.

Here is Warner’s All-Time India-Australia IPL XI Squad:
David Warner, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Hardik Pandya, Glenn Maxwell, MS Dhoni (WK), Mitchell Starc, Jasprit Bumrah, Ashish Nehra, Kuldeep Yadav/Yuzvendra Chahal.
