  1. 1. Which fast bowlers should we pick for ODI WC 2027?

Assuming, we will go in with four specialist fast bowlers with Pandya as allrounder. Who do you think will be our fast bowling cartel for the world cup? Just over a year for the world cup, the TM is trying out few fast bowlers. Who could grab the chances? Or, who would you rather have?

The contenders:

Bumrah (locked in)
Siraj

Shami (too old?)

Arshdeep
Harshit

Gurnoor

Prasidh

Prince
Mayank

Ashok

AR

 

Hardik

Reddy

 

So you are going with 3 genuine fast bowlers + 2 fast bowling allrounders in a squad of 15? Surely, a World Cup in SA deserves atleast 4 pure fast bowlers.

 

Ideal combination for ODI WC 2027

8 batsman ( including 2 WK )
2 All rounders ( either spin or fast )
1 spinner
4 fast bowler

Almost everyone picking Gurnoor. Could it be a recency bias?

 

I would rather wait for him to play & perform in 20 matches or so against various oppositions before making him a certainity.

That is 6 pacers plus 2 AR. 3+2 in XI

More to do with pitches in SA. But yes need to see him under pressure

Most probably the selectors, team management will go with seniors 

 

Bumrah 

Siraj 

Prasidh 

Hardik 

Reddy 

Arshdeep 

 

 

At present--its safe to say that Ashok, Mayank & Prince are just wild cards and Shami is not on the radar anymore.

 

The four fast bowlers will be selected from the following six

 

Bumrah

Siraj

Arshdeep
Harshit
Prasidh
Gurnoor

Arshdeep/Prasidh/if anyone else steps up

 

Pandya 

NKR maybe 

 

Pick only a lone spinner/spin allrounder but 6 seaming options would be great in Saffer conditions. 

 

 

I think Siraj is not a bad choice.  

 

BUMRAH 

Harshit 

Gurnoor 

Siraj 

Pandya 

NKR 

 

Siraj is better than lassi.

He should be in consideration but his pace is not consistent these days. 

 

If we find another quality tall guy at 85mph +, I'd be tempted to pick him
