#3 Shreyas Iyer
Captain of the wooden-spooners, Delhi Daredevils, Shreyas Iyer is one of the front-runners to replace Kohli, if there be a need. Tailor-made for the T20 format, Iyer’s flamboyant batting gives him an edge over his competitors.
This IPL season, he scored 411 runs from 14 innings, despite the pressure of captaining a team that was playing for nothing but self-esteem. Shreyas has played 5 T20s for India, in which he has 83 runs at a strike rate of 103.75.
For his state team, Mumbai, he has been one of the most prolific batsmen recently.
