IPL 2020 will begin soon (19th September 2020) and all the cricketers are busy in their final preparation ahead of the beginning of this tournament.
The opening batting position is one of the most important batting positions for every team as a strong start guides a team to the strong path in a game, and openers take this responsibility. In the past IPL tournaments, we experienced many dominant opening batsmen who played massive roles in their batting line-up.
Once again, the franchise teams are giving special importance to their opening batting spot for the upcoming IPL 2020.
Here we are talking about the top five openers who can dominate in the IPL 2020
Aaron Finch
The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have added the Australian limited-overs captain Aaron Finch in the squad for the upcoming IPL 2020. In his presence, captain Virat Kohli is likely to shift his batting position to the more favourable number as Finch will open in the forthcoming IPL season.
In the last few years, opener Finch has performed consistently in limited-overs cricket as he is the second most T20 run-scorer among the Australians and sixth most T20 run-scorer in overall. He is a very dangerous opener who likes to attack the bowlers.
In his IPL career, Finch has scored 1737 runs in 75 matches with an average of 26.31 and strike-rate of 130.69, including 13 fifties. Surely, he can perform far better in the upcoming IPL 2020 to improve his IPL career stats.
