Ranji Trophy 2016-17: Top 5 performers so far

#1 Rishabh Pant

Pant has been the best batsman in the Ranji Trophy this year

The Indian U-19 star has been the standout performer in the Ranji Trophy so far. He has been breaking records for fun and has been taking the attack to every bowler he faces. He has scored 799 runs with an average of more than 114 and a phenomenal strike rate of 113.01

In his previous match against Jharkhand, he broke a 28-year-old record by scoring the quickest ever century in the Ranji Trophy, achieving his feat in 48 balls. He also became only the 2^nd wicket-keeper batsman in Ranji Trophy history to score a triple century and the 3^rd youngest ever to do so.

It might be too early to say it, but this young wicket keeper batsman certainly has a bright future and can be the next big thing in Indian cricket.
