5
Hardik Pandya (Lithe and deadly)

The back issue may have been the Baroda all-rounder's Achilles heel in recent times, but Hardik Pandya is deadly with the bat and has the endurance levels of a greyhound. Hardik's ability to strike cleanly comes from the power he generates from the hips and the core.

Manish Pandey (Yo-Yo score of 19.2)

Manish Pandey may have been in and out of the Indian cricket team, but it is surely not because of any fitness issues. He is a gun fielder and a hard-hitting batsman who has been one of the team's fittest cricket players. He made the cut due to his impressive stamina levels.

Ravindra Jadeja (Live wire)

Jadeja's reflexes are a thing of envy. The Indian all-rounder finds himself ranked third on our list for the sole reason that his hand-eye co-ordination is way better than most players in the setup. His lean, chiselled frame makes him more agile on the field.

MS Dhoni (Age is just a myth)

He may not don Indian blue, but the sleeve-splitting biceps and brute power MS Dhoni unleashes in the IPL is a classic example of how fit the man is. At 39, Dhoni is an example for upcoming cricket players to stay fit.

Virat Kohli (Leading from the front)

The Indian skipper hasn't had butter chicken for years and the result is a toned and insanely fit physique that helps him dish out superb performances consistently. Virat Kohli has set the bar high with his fitness regime for others to catch up. He has touched the score of 19 on the Yo-Yo test.
