The International Cricket Council (ICC) announced its Test, ODI and T20I teams of the decade on Sunday and cricket fans in India were thrilled. Legendary MS Dhoni, who retired on August 15, has been named as the captain of ODI and T20I teams. whereas Virat Kohli has been declared the captain of the Test team which includes the likes of former stalwart skippers Kumar Sangakkara and Alastair Cook.

In more delight for India, off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has been named in the Test XI of the decade, men's ODI team of the decade included Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli apart from the side's captain Dhoni. Men's T20I team of the decade has four Indians - Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, MS



Dhoni and Jasprit Bumrah.

However, on the flip side no cricketer from Pakistan got a place in any of the XI's. There were representations from Australia, New Zealand, England, South Africa, West Indies, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and even Afghanistan in at least one of the three teams. Surprisingly, the Women's T20I and ODI squads also did not have any representation from Pakistan.

Former Pakistan cricketer Rashid Latif has taken a dig at ICC and targeted Indian Premier League (IPL) while expressing his disappointment, especially at the men's T20I team of the decade.

"TYPO Error {They forget to write IPL-T20s team for the decade}," he wrote while replying to ICC's tweet.
