3 players who can be surprise inclusions for the World Cup

#2 Khaleel Ahmed

Khaleel Ahmed

Khaleel Ahmed, the 20-year-old speedster has caught the attention of a lot of eyes with his impressive performances in the Asia Cup. Khaleel Ahmed's raw pace and swing have unsettled the batters at the crease.

With Khaleel Ahmed, India's quest for a left-arm pacer might have finally come to an end. Khaleel Ahmed managed 4 wickets from 2 matches in the Asia Cup. He has also become a force to be reckoned with in the death overs as the batsmen have mostly failed to read Khaleel Ahmed's deceptive slow balls and yorkers.

With the speed he generates in his bowling, Khaleel Ahmed might be able to get through the defence of the batsman.

India has lacked a reliable left-arm pacer ever since the retirement of Zaheer Khan as the likes of Jaydev Unadkat and Barinder Sran have vastly been inconsistent. However, having Khaleel Ahmed in the line-up would help India to come across their past weaknesses and flaws in bowling.
