Suryakumar Yadav (Mumbai Indians)

Considering his performances in the first-class cricketing circuit and knowing his stats in previous IPL matches, it can be safe to say that Yadav has the potential to win the Orange Cap in IPL 2020.

This middle-order batsman can anchor the innings beautifully or double up as a power-hitter whenever required by his team.

Yashasvi Jaiswal (Rajasthan Royals)

Here is another prodigy who also comes from Mumbai and has all the talent needed to single-handedly win matches for his teams. Yashasvi Jaiswal is already being touted as the next big thing and is proudly representing India at the Under-19 World Cup as well. He is in good form and along with his batting, Jaiswal is a good fielder as well. This will come in handy for his IPL franchise, the Rajasthan Royals, this year. He could certainly be in the reckoning for the Orange Cup this season if he maintains his consistent form throughout the tournament.

Nitish Rana (Kolkata Knight Riders)

One of the top batsmen for KKR (Kolkata Knight Riders), Nitish Rana is one of the biggest contenders for the Orange Cap in 2020.
