2.Suryakumar Yadav
One of India’s rising talents, Surya Kumar Yadav, has proven his mettle as a seasoned T20 batter with multiple match-winning performances in the shortest format of the game. Surya’s innovative batting style and exceptional ability to find gaps make him the ideal T20 player for any fantasy cricket team.
With three half-centuries in the two editions he has participated in, Surya is undoubtedly one of the tournament’s shining stars. Many fantasy enthusiasts consider him a must-pick for their Dream11 team.
3.Rishabh Pant
India’s emerging batting sensation, Rishabh Pant, has redefined the art of batting with his aggressive approach, dominating bowlers across all three formats, including Test cricket. Often regarded as the undisputed successor to Captain Cool, MS Dhoni, Rishabh is poised for a solid comeback in this edition of the T20 World Cup after nearly two years away from international cricket due to a severe car accident that he had sustained back in December 2022.
Despite suffering a substantial setback there hasn’t been any significant change in Pant’s batting approach with the wicket-keeper batter hammering a whopping 53 runs off just 32 deliveries at a staggering strike rate of 165+.
Being a wicketkeeper, Pant can help you fetch some additional points with his gloves behind the stumps and hence many fantasy experts consider him as a crucial member of their fantasy team.
4.Hardik Pandya
The vice captain of the Indian Team, Hardik Pandya is one of the most hard-hitting allrounders in the world of modern day cricket. With an aggressive approach to the game Hardik’s commendable batting prowess down the order has often come to Team India’s rescue during crunch moments.
Overshadowed by his stupendous batting performances, Hardik’s bowling abilities have served as the small contributions that make big impacts. Bowling in the middle overs, whenever Hardik has been handed the ball he has been successful in breaking crucial partnerships and providing the Men In Blue with the much needed breakthroughs to get them back into the game.
Do you remember Hardik’s sensational last over in the 2016 ICC T20 World Cup match against Bangladesh?
After conceding 9 runs in the first three balls of the final over, with just 2 runs left of the last 3 balls for Bangladesh to win, Hardik’s last three balls will go down as the most scintillating comeback in the history of the tournament with the all-rounder taking 2 wickets and MS Dhoni running the Bangladesh out on the last ball to deny them a remarkable victory over the Men in Blue.

5.Jasprit Bumrah
The spearhead of the Indian pace artillery, Jasprit Bumrah has cemented his position in the Indian dressing room as the ‘formidable bowler’ whom no batter wants to face. Bumrah’s toe-crushing yorkers and tremendous abilities to swing the ball in both the directions have proved instrumental in delivering the early breakthroughs and have played a pivotal role in the recent success of the Indian pace artillery ever since the inception of his international career.
Bumrah has already taken an impressive 10 wickets in the prestigious T20 World Cup which definitely would have exceeded, had he played the last edition of the tournament in 2022 which he missed out owing to an injury which kept him away from international cricket for quite some time.
