ODI XI if India, Pakistan and Bangladesh reunite

#2 Shikhar Dhawan

Shikhar Dhawan can provide electrifying starts

Shikhar Dhawan will be tasked with opening the batting and making effective use of the powerplay. A left-handed option at the top of the order is always useful to unsettle bowling attacks.

Dhawan is known for his immaculate timing and diverse shot-making, especially through the cover region. He also has the wonderful ability to convert starts into big scores and so, he could turn out to be more than handy for the team at the top.

#1 Rohit Sharma

Rohit Sharma will open for the side

Opening the batting with Shikhar Dhawan will be Rohit Sharma. He can dismantle any bowling attack on his day, and is particularly harsh against the short ball. He takes his time at the start of the innings but once he gets in, he toys with the bowlers.

His prowess with the bat at the start of the innings would help propel this team to huge scores, building a solid platform for the middle and lower order to capitalize on.
