Middle-order:
Hanuma Vihari
The 24-year-old was the leading run scorer in the Ranji Trophy last year and has been in great form ever since. He was a part of the India A squad which toured England and was one of the leading run scorers there.
With the way he is going, he could surely make his debut for the Indian team soon. He could be the perfect replacement for Cheteshwar Pujara at no. 3.
Virat Kohli
We could expect the Indian captain to continue playing a long time from now. With the way he is batting and destroying every opposition he encounters, he could go to play for another 5-7 years with ease.
However, it will be interesting to see if he continues to captain the side five years down the line. He is currently leading the Indian team in England.
