IPL: An all-time XI consisting of the hardest hitters

#4 Rohit Sharma

Rohit Sharma

Most big hitters are unattractive to watch on the eyes because of their use of brute power. However, in Rohit Sharma's case, it is all about class and finesse. The charisma that he brings to the game has made many people fall in love with his batting.

We all know how dangerous Rohit Sharma can be when he is on fire. For the Mumbai Indians, he has played countless fiery knocks in his IPL career. There can be no better man to bat at No.4 in this line-up than Rohit Sharma.

#5 Suresh Raina

Suresh Raina

Suresh Raina has been the numero uno in the CSK batting line-up every season. He has held the middle-order together and guided them to numerous inspiring totals over the years. Raina's batting style is about building the innings with singles, twos and the occasional boundary and going berserk once he is set.

When chasing a big target, Raina can be a tough customer to deal with since he is not afraid of taking risks. His blitzkrieg knock of 87 off 25 balls against the KXIP in the 2014 playoffs is etched in the memories of cricket fans.
