His ability to anchor an innings and play aggressive strokes when needed makes him a game-changer for India. Considering his recent performance at Asia cup 2023 he is surely a force to be reckoned with. Despite his age, the 34-year-old is among the fittest athletes in the sport and continues to score runs with a scarcely believable consistency.

Rohit Sharma, known as the “Hitman,” is a destructive opener. His elegant stroke play and ability to score big centuries make him a top performer.
