Jason Roy
An explosive opener could set the tone

The Surrey-man has been a resounding success as an opener for England over the past 15 months and he has combined beautifully with Alex Hales at the top of the order. He is an exciting talent and his stroke play often takes the breath away and his approach at the top of the order epitomises England’s transformation in the limited overs format.

He flourishes when he has been given the free run, and he is having a pretty decent limited overs series against India which would be establish himself as one of the hot picks in the upcoming IPL auctions.

Teams who would look to get him: Mumbai Indians, Kings XI Punjab
