2. Hanuma Vihari

Vihari has an enviable first-class average of 59.79, which is one of the best in the world. He has struck double centuries in each of his last five Ranji seasons which shows his capability of batting for long periods of time.
The Andhra lad has been a part of the India A squad since 2017 and has been a consistent performer.
A gritty middle order bastman, Vihari can be a big asset to the Indian line-up. He always looks to spend time on the crease and has the ability play marathon innings, which would be very useful given the tendency of the current Indian batsmen to throw their wicket away.
