India's predicted XI for World Cup on the basis of ODI performances in Australia

Spin Bowler: Kuldeep Yadav

Kuldeep remains to be the front line spinner for India

Though Chahal picked up six wickets during the third and final ODI, Kuldeep Yadav remains to be the first-choice Indian spinner at the moment. One thing which goes heavily in favour of Yadav is his wicket-taking ability and the mystery element he brings in with his wrist spin.

Chahal, it seems will continue to be the second choice spinner for India during the World Cup as playing both the spinners simultaneously in the squad seems a distant possibility on English pitches.

Fast Bowlers: Bhuvneshwar Kumar & Jasprit Bumrah

Bhuvneshwar had a good outing during the Australian series

Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah are two of the best fast bowlers in the ODI cricket at the moment. Bumrah was rested during the Australian ODI series but he continues to be the frontline pace bowler for India at the moment. There were some doubts about Bhuvneshwar's form and fitness before the start of the Australian series, but, Bhuvneshwar has put aside these doubts with his brilliant bowling throughout the series.

These two bowlers are expected to lead the Indian pace attack during the World Cup with Shami and Khaleel Ahmed as back-up options in case of an injury.
