ICC CWC 2019: Team of the tournament

Jasprit Bumrah

Sri Lanka v India - ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

While playing India, batsmen will have to think of scoring runs in the 40 overs and whatever little they could score off Jasprit Bumrah, it has to be considered as a bonus. Arguably the best death bowler in world cricket at the moment, Bumrah has lived up to his reputation as the No 1 bowler in this format.

If the team needed a breakthrough, Virat Kohli would call on Bumrah and if he needed to stem the flow of runs, the Indian skipper had to go back to the same man and he didn't disappoint. Jasprit Bumrah finished with 18 wickets at an incredible economy of only 4.41 runs per over.

Lockie Ferguson

New Zealand v Australia - ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

With Shakib al Hasan in the team as a spin option, it would be ideal to add another pace bowler to the bowling line up. New Zealand’s Lockie Ferguson has the reputation as one of the fastest bowlers in world cricket right now and has lived up to that billing and was Williamson’s wicket-taking option through the middle overs.

Ferguson has a history of giving away runs in the bargain for wickets but was consistent with line and lengths as well in this year's World Cup.

The New Zealand quick finished second in the list of most number of wickets; 21 from 9 games to go with an economy rate of only 4.88 is a very good combination for any captain to have in ODI cricket.
