Fantasy: One player for each team from other teams before WC 2019

New Zealand - Pat Cummins

Pat Cummins

This might come as a surprise to many as NZ already have quality fast bowlers in Trent Boult and Tim Southee but they lack in a genuine 3rd fast bowler and Pat Cummins can be the perfect guy for the job. He bowls at 140+ clicks, can swing the ball both ways and also can bowl deadly yorkers at the death.

A third fast bowler at the death can be vital in bringing variety so the batsman doesn’t get used to bowlers. New Zealand, like India, are one of the favourites to lift the trophy next year and Pat can be the guy who can bring them closer to the prize that they lost in the finals.
