India won the inaugural twenty20 cricket world cup held in South Africa by defeating Pakistan in a thrilling encounter. South Africa conducted this tournament in the best possible way. Arch-rivals, India and Pakistan, played two most memorable matches in this world cup. My dream team is dominated by players from these countries due to sterling performance even though they lack experience in this format.Man of the tournament: Shahid Afridi.
My 2007 t20 cricket world cup awards:
1. Most exciting team to watch: India

7. Best captain: Mahendra Singh Dhoni- he led the young team with an inspiring leadership.

My dream twenty20 world cup team:
1. Mahendra Singh Dhoni (captain) –India
2. Mathew Hayden – Australia
