Top Clashes :

1. Virat Kohli v James Anderson - it’s King of Batting vs King of Swing Bowling, I mean one can’t ask for more in these series than this.

p.s - looking forward to seeing KING KOHLI taking an edge over Anderson.

2. R Ashwin v Ben Stokes - One of the most top clash people are looking for. Ashwin has already dismissed him five times in 2016-17. Hoping that Ashwin will continue to keep his dominance.

3. Ajinkya Rahane v Stuart Broad - After the historic win by India, Rahane is incomplete form. Broad is one of the best England bowlers. We could witness a battle between these two where both of them will try to stamp out their authority. This battle will be a treat to watch. hoping to see Jinx's power.

4. C Pujara v J Archer - this battle will gonna be a cherry on the top of the cake. Modern Day Wall gonna face the Bouncer Guillotine.

p.s - we all know our modern-day wall is immovable from the place. So hoping to see his dominance.
