Rohit Sharma
Ever since started opening in Test cricket he has looked a completely different batsman and has become one of the backbones for Virat Kohli-led side in the longest format of the game. He will have a huge role to play if India has to make inroads in the five-Test series and can be one of the highest run-scorer in the series. He, however, had a decent start in the first innings of the first Test match and stitched 97 runs for the opening partnership with KL Rahul.
Even though Rohit Sharma scored only 36 runs in the first innings, but he looked solid and was spot on with his technique to tackle swing. The swashbuckling right-handed batsman has been in great form in tests. With his ability to adapt quickly and his versatility, he can be vital for Team India in the English conditions. In 40 Tests so far, Sharma has scored 2715 runs at an average of 46.02 to go with seven hundred and twelve half-centuries.
