#7 Sri Lanka - Virat Kohli
Ever since the retirement of Kumar Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene, and Tillakaratne Dilshan, Sri Lanka cricket team has been struggling to find young players who can perform consistently. Even the likes of experienced Mathews, Malinga, and Chandimal have been giving their best but could not succeed in inspiring the young lot. With the changes in captaincy, coaching staff and selection committee, the Sri Lankan cricket is full of chaos at the moment.
They currently need an aggressive leader who can set an example and inspire the youngsters by leading from the front. Kohli is someone who can win them matches single-handedly. The inclusion of Kohli can do a world of good to the Sri Lankan cricket.
The Indian skipper has thus far played 216 ODIs scoring a mammoth 10232 runs at a staggering average of 59.83. Virat also has 38 tons and 48 half-centuries to his name.
