Shreyas Iyer
He's been knocking on the doors of national selection for a while now and why not. Shreyas Iyer is considered as one of the best players India has produced since Virat Kohli. His incredible record in the Ranji Trophy is well-documented. After finishing his maiden Ranji season for Mumbai as its top run-getter (809 at 50.56), he followed it with a stunning 2015-16 Ranji season where he heaped up 1321 runs from 11 matches at an average of 73.38 and a wonderful strike rate of 92.70.
Alongside his terrific record at the domestic level, solid performances in the IPL and for the India A side has made him one of the most exciting players in the country.

Shubman Gill
This 18-year-old teen prodigy has been playing one majestic knock after another for the India under-19 side. The young batsman who is being mentored by Rahul Dravid is in a league of his own when compared to his fellow under-19 players.
He also believes that he is in the same mould as Virat Kohli and would like to emulate the Indian captain. He is definitely a player to watch out for in the near future.
