Kohli and Rahane shaking hands after the former completed a test century
#11 Ishant Sharma

Last but not the least, comes in Ishant Sharma. Though he has been termed by many as the worst bowler to play more than 50 Tests, he is a guy who on his day, can destroy any batting line up.
Anyone who knows about this player will remember the memorable spell he bowled as a teenager to the then Aussie captain Ricky Ponting at the WACA. Though he rarely performs on a consistent basis but his experience will come in handy.

Ishant bowled splendidly when the Indians toured West Indies the last time around and he will have fond memories of that. He will surely want to replicate those performances and come out triumphant.

About the author
Arya Sekhar Chakraborty
Arya is a cricket journalist with around 8 years of experience who writes informative listicles and is in charge of text commentary at Sportskeeda. He is a graduate in Journalism, Psychology, and English, and has previously worked for websites such as CricTracker, SportzWiki, Cricket Addictor, Cricfit, OneCricket, and Cricket Exchange. His vast experience has led him to know the pulse of his readers and he cross-checks information from a number of credible sources before writing a single word for their sake.
A former Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) U14 and U16 player, Arya's tryst with cricket began after watching Sachin Tendulkar in action during his childhood. He is an ardent fan of Mumbai Indians (MI) owing to Tendulkar's initial involvement and also bleeds blue for his national team. He is an admirer of Test cricket as he feels the red-ball format teaches one about every facet of life.
Arya, who feels ODIs should not be completely replaced with T20Is owing to the former's pacing and charm, would like to go back in time to 1998 and watch the Master Blaster in action. He has experience in interviewing a few Bengali cricketers such as Kazi Junaid Saifi, Shib Shankar Pal, Sayan Ghosh and Prayas Ray Barman. He has also translated a couple of Bengali cricket books, and made Indian Premier League (IPL) pre-match videos.
He likes to spend time with his family and binge on web series during his spare time.
