KL Rahul is a player who looks pleasing to the eye. His all-round gameplay, ability to hit boundaries against both the spinners and fast bowlers make him a special talent. So far, in his 17 T20I innings, he has scored an impressive 696 runs at an average of 50 and a brilliant strike rate of 155 including two centuries which makes him a certainty to play at the number three position.

Virat Kohli is without any doubt, one the best batsman in the business across all formats, especially in the T20I format. He is believed to be the best chaser, the world cricket has ever seen. The great thing about his batting is that he can adapt his batting according to the situation. His ranking off late has slipped a little but he, without any doubt not only deserves to be in the team but also deserves to captain the team as well.
