India is touted as a cricketing powerhouse having no dearth of talent at their disposal. The Men in Blue have been dominating ICC events over the past few years, having won two T20 World Cup titles and one Champions Trophy.

One of the biggest reasons behind India’s immense success is the availability of a large talent pool to choose from. Given its large population, India have been blessed with rich talent, who continue to keep them on the top of world cricket. 

As the Asian giants continue their golden run in world cricket, here’s a look at three players who could become all-format superstars from India:


1. Tilak Varma

The 23-year-old has risen in stature over the past few years and become a true match-winner for the team in T20Is. Tilak Varma’s ability to withstand pressure in big matches has earned him plaudits across the globe. His game awareness and ability to adapt to different stages of the game make him a perfect candidate to represent the team in all three formats in future.


2. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi

The teenage batting sensation has taken the cricketing world by storm following his record-breaking campaign in the Indian Premier League 2026 (IPL 2026). Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has continued his remarkable rise in international cricket as well, having played a few memorable knocks in his young career. 

With age on his side, Sooryavanshi has all the ingredients to become the next big thing in Indian cricket and become a regular mainstay in the team across formats.


3. Nitish Kumar Reddy

The 23-year-old possesses a unique skill set in India, being a seam all-rounder. With the team management in desperate search of Hardik Pandya’s successor, Nitish Kumar Reddy emerges as a true potential candidate for a future all-format star. His all-round skills are particularly going to be pivotal to the team’s success in Test matches in SENA countries.
