The two opening batters play one of the most important roles for the batting side in one-day international matches. It is their responsibility to provide a foundation for their team, either through aggressive stroke-making or by putting in a lot of effort and hitting a big hit while others are batting around them.
Others thrive and relish destroying rival bowling attacks early in the innings, while some struggle under that pressure. Some openers have elevated run-scoring throughout ODI cricket’s history and built successful careers by destroying even the best bowlers.
