With the Men's T20 World Cup 2026 final between New Zealand and India set for Sunday, BBC Sport is inviting fans to select their tournament team of the year. After 54 matches, the competition has showcased exceptional talent across batting, bowling, and all-round performances. The interactive voting system breaks down selections into three categories: openers, middle-order batters/all-rounders, and specialist bowlers.

For opening slots, voters can choose from explosive hitters like Pakistan's Sahibzada Farhan (383 runs at 76.60 average) and Zimbabwe's Brian Bennett (292 runs at 146.00 average). The middle-order category features India's Suryakumar Yadav and New Zealand's Rachin Ravindra, who also contributes with the ball, taking 11 wickets. All-round options include West Indies' Jason Holder with 10 wickets and England's Will Jacks with 9 wickets alongside his batting contributions.

The bowling selections highlight tournament standout USA's Shadley van Schalkwyk with 13 wickets at just 7.76 average, and India's Jasprit Bumrah maintaining an impressive economy rate of 6.62. Fans will select four bowlers from a pool featuring South Africa's Marco Jansen, Sri Lanka's Maheesh Theekshana, and England's Adil Rashid. The final XI will be revealed during BBC's live text coverage of the championship match.
