3 batsmen who could match the Fab Four of Kohli-Root-Williamson-Smith in the future

1. KL Rahul

KL Rahul has 7 international hundreds to his name

KL Rahul is one of the best stroke-makers in the world right now. He strikes the ball with utmost easy and makes batting look incredibly easy.

Virat Kohli gave away his No. 3 position for Rahul, which speaks volumes about the talent that the youngster possesses. The 26-year-old now seems like a must for India in all three formats.

The way Rahul timed the ball in the IPL and the recently concluded T20I series was really pleasing to the eye. He is only the second Indian to score two centuries in T20Is and only the third Indian to have a century in all three formats.

Rahul made his Test debut in 2014 against Australia in Australia. In only his second match at the SCG, he scored his 1st Test hundred.

When Australia visited India last year for a 4 Test Match Series, Rahul scored six 50s in just 7 innings and was India’s second highest run-scorer.

He scored a 100 on his ODI debut against Zimbabwe and scored a T20I hundred in Florida batting at No. 4 against West Indies while chasing a target of over 240.

Rahul has a solid technique which can make him successful in all three formats, which is why he is slotted in at No. 1 on this list.
