Four members of the victorious Pakistan team that beat Sri Lanka by eight wickets in Sunday's final of the World Twenty20 were named in the team of the tournament announced by the ICC here on Monday.

An expert panel, including former West Indies quick Ian Bishop and tournament director Steve Elworthy, the former South Africa pace bowler, chose Pakistan captain Younus Khan to lead the all-star side.

Also included were all-rounder Shahid Afridi, a hard-hitting batsman and dangerous leg-spinner whose unbeaten 54 won him the man-of-the-match award on Sunday and reverse-swing specialist Umar Gul, who took a Twenty20 international record five wickets in a match against New Zealand.

Wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal completed the Pakistan quartet.

Opening batsman Tillekaratne Dilshan, the player of the tournament was one of three Sri Lankans in the 12-man squad with the losing semi-final duo of South Africa and the West Indies providing the remainder of the side.
