ICC World Cup 2019: 5 most balanced sides 

#1 England

The ODI team of England have been a force to reckon with in recent times. After the 2015 World Cup debacle, captain Eoin Morgan infused a sense of fearlessness in the side, and the results are there for everyone to see.

The team has an explosive opening combination in Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow. The middle order consists of the ever consistent Joe Root and captain Eoin Morgan. They have capable power-hitters in Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler and Moeen Ali with Chris Woakes and Liam Plunkett capable of using the long handle as well.

Bowling is good enough with Mark Wood and Chris Woakes leading the bowling attack. They have Liam Plunkett and Ben Stokes as the third and the fourth seamers. The spin department comprises the experienced duo of Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid who provide essential breakthroughs in the middle overs. They also have Joe Root as a part-time option.

England have the home advantage and a team that can go all the way. If they guard against batting collapses, England will be overwhelming favourites to win the World Cup 2019.
