#3 Kagiso Rabada
Kagiso Rabada has come a long way in his cricketing career. Just like Bumrah, Rabada has made a name for himself in all the three formats of the game and will play a vital role for South Africa's chances in this World Cup.
Rabada had a fantastic IPL season, picking up 25 wickets in 12 matches for the Delhi Capitals that helped them reach the knockouts for the first time since 2012. Rabada is going through a very good form and would be looking to dominate this year's World Cup as well.
He can bowl good opening spells and can also do the job in the death overs for his team. He has the ability to take wickets and has the confidence over his bowling variations that would come in handy in batting paradise pitches of England. Rabada would surely lead the South African pace bowling attack with the likes of the Dale Steyn and Lungi Ngidi.
If Rabada repeats his IPL 2019 heroics, he would not only help the Proteas reach the knockouts but also end the tournament as the highest wicket-taking bowler.
