World Cup 2019: India's strongest playing XI

Fast Bowlers- Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah

Mohammed Shami has had a phenomenal turnaround in the limited overs circuit in 2019, as he forced his way back into the side with phenomenal outings in Australia and New Zealand. Shami is very accurate with the new ball and also has the ability to reverse the ball when it gets old. He has also been quite economical in the recent past and has picked wickets at regular intervals.

Jasprit Bumrah is the lynchpin of the Indian bowling attack. Bumrah justifies the tag of being world's best bowler every time he takes field. The 25-year old has all the weapons in his arsenal, be it swing, pace, bouncers, and deceptive slower balls, not to forget his evergreen yorkers.

He has the ability of remaining calm in the hour of crisis, and executing his plans to perfection. Bumrah is handy to provide break-throughs with the new ball, and at a completely different level at the death, aiming the yorkers to perfection.
