1. Murali Vijay

Murali Vijay known for his solid defensive technique and making the new ball old will be important for India during the upcoming test series against England. When India toured England in a 5 match test series, Vijay played some brilliant knocks while opening the innings. He scored 402 runs from 5 matches.

Despite his efforts, India lost the test series 1-3. In the test series against South Africa, he could not contribute many runs for India. Before coming to England, Vijay scored a century against Afghanistan. If Vijay could provide a solid start for the Indian team, then the visitors could post a big total.
