David Warner and Shikhar Dhawan were the primary players who provided their team with a good start but now that David Warner is not around. Dhawan's job has become even more crucial in order to give a good start to his team. It will thus be very interesting to watch as to how Dhawan comes out to perform in such a scenario.
However, the team has hired Alex Hales to replace Warner. Moreover, the team also has wicketkeeper-batsman Wriddhiman Saha and Manish Pandey who can support the middle order very well in the hours of need.
