South African all-rounder Chris Morris recently named his all-time T20I XI which included five Indian cricketers. He picked former India skipper MS Dhoni for the captaincy role.

The 34-year-old has played under Dhoni for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL. He made his IPL debut with CSK in 2013 and was bought for INR 3.32 crores in the auction.

Morris picked Rohit Sharma and Chris Gayle, two destructive batters for the opening spot. At the number three spot, he named South Africa's AB de Villiers. 

The trio of Rohit, Gayle, and De Villiers can demolish any bowling attack and they are proven T20 stars. Morris has Virat Kohli at the number 4 batting spot, who has been an outstanding run chaser.

Caribbean star Kieron Pollard often snatches the victory away from the jaws of his opponents, and he is at number 5, followed by Dhoni at 6. The former India captain will be paired up with Hardik Pandya for the finishing role in the lower order.

The bowling unit includes legendary pacers, Brett Lee and Lasith Malinga, along with India's highly skilled bowler Jasprit Bumrah. West Indies mystery bowler Sunil Narine is the only spinner in Morris' all-time XI.

Chris Morris' all-time T20 XI: Rohit Sharma, Chris Gayle, AB de Villiers, Virat Kohli, Kieron Pollard, MS Dhoni (captain and wicket-keeper), Hardik Pandya, Sunil Narine, Jasprit Bumrah, Brett Lee, and Lasith Malinga.
