All-Rounders: Jason Holder, Andre Russell and Carlos Brathwaite

West Indies have been a side which have produced few of the most sought after T20 players this decade but they haven't really turned up on the ODI stage. This year, however, they have an in-form Andre Russell who has been adding a lot of new things to his game and a good performance from his is expected this World Cup.

Skipper Jason Holder, though is the main man and he has been outstanding for the side in the longer formats equally with both bat and ball. Carlos Brathwaite hasn't done wonders with the bat but is a stable bowling option and he can smack a few out of the park as well.

West Indies have 3 dynamic all-rounders but not all of them have proven themselves in ODI cricket and they need to adapt very quick.


#5 Bangladesh

All-Rounders: Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Mehidy Hasan, Mosaddek Hossain and Mohammad Saifuddin

Bangladesh at No.5 ahead of powerhouse units like Australia and South Africa might surprise a few but one look into the stats of these players proves that Bangladesh are no slouch when it comes to competing in this tournament. Shakib enters this tournament as the No.1 ODI All-Rounder in the world as ranked by the ICC. His presence provides balance in all aspects to the side.

Mahmudullah, meanwhile is one of the most under-rated players in the world and has been rescuing Bangladesh from a batting collapse on numerous occasions. He's a very good off-spinner who can contain the run flow. Then come the young bowling all-rounders, Mehidy Hasan and Mohammad Saifuddin who bowl right arm off-spin and medium pace respectively. Both of them can give the ball a real whack while Mosaddek Hossain is a reliable all-round option too.

Bangladesh might be an unnoticed team but this might work to their favor and they may very well end up punching above their weight.
