ICC World Cup 2023: Top 5 teams with the best fast bowling attack in the tournament

#4 New Zealand

Perennial dark horses New Zealand lost the final of the World Cup four years back by the barest of margins imaginable. The Kiwis would like fortune to smile on them and get third time lucky this time, after being runner-ups in the last two editions of the World Cup. And for that to happen, they need their fast bowling unit to fire in unison.

Probables for World Cup - Tim Southee, Trent Boult, Matt Henry, Lockie Fergusson, Adam Milne, Kyle Jamieson

One of the best new ball pairs in the format, Boult and Southee will most likely be seen together in the World Cup one last time. They would love to end it with the trophy in their hands.

The Kiwi pace attack covers all bases, and most of the bowlers have good exposure to Indian conditions. Boult, Henry and Southee can make the new ball talk, Fergusson and Milne can rattle any lineup with raw pace in the middle overs, and Jamieson's height and angle give him a unique advantage.
