Fast bowler Dale Steyn chose his best XI, did not give place to any player from India,

The experienced South African fast bowler Dale Steyn has selected his best playing XI team of cricket players. Surprisingly, he does not include any Indian players in this list. Stan's best XI includes only two foreign players in the form of Kumar Sangakkara and Brett Lee. This list is chosen by Stan from the players he has played with or against.

Interestingly, the team in his best XI consists of his 'school bowling partner', 'best friend' and his 'club captain'. He has selected his country's former captain Graeme Smith and former Sri Lankan captain Kumar Sangakkara as openers. Apart from this, great all-rounder Jacques Collis has been selected at number four and great fielder Jonty Rhodes for number five.

At the same time, limited-overs captain Quinton de Kock of the current South African team has been selected for number six. The bowling has included Brett Lee, Paul Harris and Alan Donald. Veteran fast bowler Stan has also not picked his own teammate and AB de Villiers, one of the world's explosive batsmen, with whom he has played a lot of matches.

Dale Steyn's Best Playing XI: Kumar Sangakkara, Graeme Smith, Dave Hacken, Jacques Collis, Jonty Rhodes, Quinton de Kock, Brett Burgiacchi, Peter Lombard, Brett Lee, Paul Harris, Alan Donald.
