The announced team represents CA’s effort to recognise the outstanding contributions of the eleven players for their respective countries throughout the second WTC cycle.
Babar led Pakistan throughout the cycle and was as prolific with the bat as ever, particularly in 2022, when the 28-year-old scored 1184 runs in 9 matches, including four hundreds and seven fifties.

His form allowed Pakistan to stay within striking distance of the WTC Final before costly home losses to Australia, a whitewash against England, and a drawn series against New Zealand meant Pakistan fell short of their goal.
The Green Shirts finished seventh in the final table.
Australia and India qualified for the final, which will be held on June 7th at The Oval in London.
ICC will unveil its own Team of the Tournament at the conclusion of the final.
WTC Team of the Tournament according to Cricket Australia:
Usman Khawaja, Dimuth Karaunaratne, Babar Azam, Joe Root, Travis Head, Ravindra Jadeja, Rishabh Pant (WK), Ravichandran Ashwin, Pat Cummins (C), Kagiso Rabada, and James Anderson[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
