The English media has slammed the panel charged with picking the ICC Champions Trophy Team of the Tournament, saying that it had become clear that one man's star performer is another's prize dud.

Although the Independent admitted that choosing teams is a tough job, it however, said that the team pickings did not make any sense given that six players were picked from one country and five from another.

According to the report, in the event, seven players were easily agreed but there was an emergency last-minute exchange of emails after the final, adding that the outcome was that Indian captain MS Dhoni went from not being in the team to being its captain.
