1. Sherfane Rutherford

Sherfane Rutherford has been around the West Indies cricket circuit for quite some time. However, he is still just 26 years old. He made his international debut in December 2018 at the age of 20. Rutherford has played 13 ODIs and 30 T20Is for the West Indies. He has scored 567 runs and 436 runs in the two formats, respectively. The West Indian likes to put the bowlers to the sword with his ability to hit boundaries all around the park. In ODIs, he is averaging a staggering 70.88 at a strike rate of 109.68.
Meanwhile, in the shortest format, he has an average of 22.95 and a strike rate of 140.20. Rutherford also had a fabulous Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign for the Gujarat Titans. The management showed a lot of trust in his abilities as they benched Glenn Phillips to give him opportunities to play. In 13 matches, he scored 291 runs at an average of 32.33 and a strike rate of 157.30. The left-handed batter can also bowl at a decent medium pace, making him a versatile cricketer.
