5 Players who can bat at No.4 for India after the World Cup
These players are definitely future stars and could be tried at the much-debated position.
3. Shubman Gill
Touted as the next big thing in Indian cricket after Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill rose to fame after scoring 418 runs at an astonishing average of 104.50 in the 2018 U19 World Cup. He also won the Player of the Tournament award and was the architect of India’s title win.
His fondness to score big runs and stay at the crease for longer period of time makes him an ideal choice for the No. 4 position. In 39 List-A matches, Gill already has 4 centuries to his name and has scored 1591 runs. His batting style is quite flexible and from opening the innings to batting at No.7, Shubman Gill has done it all for his IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders so far.
He was tried at the No. 3 position for a couple of games in New Zealand but struggled against the swinging ball. The No.4 position suits his game and he could be a long term option for the position after the World Cup.
