2. Rohit Sharma (MI)

The Mumbaikar batsman, Rohit Sharma, who is also the skipper of MI, is the backbone of the blue brigade. In recent times, he had been one of the most destructive batsmen in international T20s. He has all the abilities a batsman can have in T20s. He can give a good start in the opening, he can play sheet anchor in the middle overs and even he can wreak havoc for bowlers in the death. If Mumbai wants to defend their title, he needs to perform for them.
