ICC Champions Trophy semi-final: Top five players to watch out for when India face Sri Lanka

3. Shikhar Dhawan

The new sensation of Indian cricket, Shikhar Dhawan has commanded absolute obedience from the bowlers ever since his debut against Australia. He is the highest run-scorer in the tournament so far with two consecutive hundreds and an innings of substance against Pakistan. He has adapted to English conditions in no time, and has exhibited that he has the technique and the temperament to play at the highest level. He exhibits controlled aggression in the power-play overs by being playing cautiously against the swinging ball and putting the loose deliveries away. He has found the perfect opening partner in Rohit Sharma who can take the pressure off him by playing his shots. Dhawan would want to continue with his great run of form and make a claim for the man of the tournament award with a match-winning knock against Sri Lanka.
