Vijay Shankar is the latest sensation in Indian cricket, and his performance in the recent times has been worthy of recognition.

His brilliant 40 before his run out in the 2nd match of the Australia series and his brilliant final over in that very match has earned him a number of fans.

He is an extremely capable batsman and is technically sound. He has the ability to rotate the strike in the middle overs to keep the run-rate going.

The all-rounder is also capable of playing the big shots and can act as a finisher in the team as well.

His recent form is also in his favour as he has resurrected the Indian innings on both the occasions he got an opportunity to do so to take his team to a respectable total.

His batting in itself is capable of earning him a place in the XI, his ability to also contribute with the ball should definitely clinch him a place in the Indian World Cup XI.
