#3 Lendl Simmons

Caribbean opener Lendl Simmons still is one of the best opening batsmen in the shortest format of the game. His form in the ongoing Caribbean Premier League tournament, where he has amassed 430 runs in 12 matches reiterates the aforementioned statement.
Simmons also has a great record in the IPL. The right-handed batsman has played in 29 IPL games aggregating 1,079 runs at an astounding average of 39.96. In the last edition of the tournament, Royal Challengers Bangalore had struggled at the top because of their openers’ failures.
In this case, they can reunite Parthiv Patel with his former Mumbai Indians teammate, Simmons or send the West Indian batsman to open the innings with Virat Kohli in IPL 2020.
The three-time runners-up can benefit a lot by signing Simmons because his inclusion will definitely reduce the pressure on the likes of AB de Villiers, Shimron Hetmyer and Shivam Dube.
