Murali Vijay:
Known for his compact technique, Murali Vijay filed to press his claims in the India limited overs team. The ‘Test specialist’ label stuck with him ever since he made his debut versus South Africa at Ahmedabad in 2010. In all, he could play just 26 matches (17 ODIs and 9 T20Is) and these appearances saw him score just over 400 run overall. The stats obviously speak why he was never able to cement his place in the team. However, his IPL career was a bit more successful. The IPL franchise saw him as the one who brought stability and in a T20 side. This faith enabled his play his the reputation of consistent run maker as opener. So far, the right hander has played 100 matches with over 2500 runs to his credit. These runs have come across three franchise since first appearing in the 2009 season with the Chennai Super Kings.
