Top 5 upcoming all-rounders in world cricket

#4 Marcus Stoinis

Stoinis scored a century in his second game for the Aussies

The lower-order all-rounder is a newbie in the international stage but is a great find for Australia to fill the void left after the retirement of Shane Watson. Stoinis can bowl handy medium pacers with good variations like the off-cutter in his armoury.

Stoinis stunned the cricketing fraternity with a career-best 146 against New Zealand in a close and near impossible chase but finished on the losing side. However, his presence of mind and counter-attacking game earned rave reviews.

The manner in which he took all strike in a fifty run partnership with the No. 11 batsman showed that Stoinis has a shrewd cricketing brain and astute judgement. With the Champions Trophy coming up, Stoinis will be a pretty handy all-rounder for Australia. He can also be an asset in the T20 and Test teams.
