4. Virat Kohli

With a few months to go before he turns 30, Virat Kohli is in the peak of his international career. The regular skipper of the Indian team is not a part of the tournament being held in UAE owing to a hectic schedule in the past few months.
After impressing in the U-19 World Cup 2008 and in the Emerging a Nation’s Tournament in Australia, Kohli got a chance in the ODIs against Sri-Lanka in 2008. In a short span of time, he became a regular in the ODI setup.
Currently, he is the no. 1 ranked batsman in the ICC ODI rankings with 911 rating points. He holds the record for the most runs in a bilateral series which he set during the series in South Africa earlier this year.
