5 batters to watch at ICC World Cup in India

Shubman Gill (India) :
Gill has been in stellar form and moved up to a career-high world No. 2 in the ODI rankings having scored 1,230 runs in 20 matches this year.

The 24-year old was the leading scorer at the recent Asia Cup as India won their eighth title and his partnership with captain Rohit Sharma will again be crucial, with the World Cup hosts looking to repeat their 2011 success by lifting the trophy on home soil. Gill is among the handful of batters with a century in each format of the international game, which includes a double hundred against New Zealand in an ODI earlier this year.
