#3 Shubman Gill

England U19's v India U19's - 4th ODI
Shubman Gill will be one to watch out for

Shubman Gill shot to fame with his extraordinary performances in the recent U-19 World Cup where he scored 418 runs at an average of 104.5. Gill played a vital role in India U-19 team's road to a record fourth title. His performances didn't go unnoticed as he was a hot potato in the 2018 IPL Player Auctions. He bagged a 1.8 Crore deal with KKR for the upcoming edition of the IPL.

His sheer talent makes him an ideal choice for the opening slot. Considering Chris Lynn's injury concerns, KKR would like to chop and change the opening slot by handing the responsibilities to Gill as well.
