#1 Shreyas Iyer
He was been touted to replace Virat Kohli but has been instead picked to play in India A squad. Shreyas Iyer has been knocking the door for a long time now and should have been handed this opportunity ahead of Karun Nair.
He was in red-hot form for India in the ODIs against Sri Lanka and has carried this form into the IPL. Also, he was named as Kohli's replacement for the Dharamsala Test against the Australians back in 2017.
