Shubman Gill (VC)

The “Prince” of Indian cricket team, Shubman Gill is a young sensational batter with sheer talent. Despite being out of form for sometime, Gill might find his mojo back in his favourite format.

Virat Kohli

The “King” of cricket, Virat Kohli is one of the greatest batters of all-time. Kohli has been a backbone of the Indian team for a decade. In the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025, Kohli’s form would be crucial for Team India to reclaim the title.

Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer is probably the best No.4 batter after Yuvraj Singh for Team India in ODIs. Iyer had a sensational ODI World Cup in 2023 and also made a brilliant comeback in Vijay Hazare Trophy.

KL Rahul (WK)

One of the most balanced players, KL Rahul is a best choice wicket-keeper batter for Team India for the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025. Batting in the middle, Rahul will provide stability.
