Mark Wood, England, T20 World Cup 2024

Top 5 England bowlers to watch out for in the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024

The defending champions are all set to go into the ICC Men’s T20I World Cup 2024 with the mindset of defending their title. They have built a strong team that seems to have all the bases covered. The bowling attack looks lethal, with Jofra Archer also back in the ranks. The main thing is to see how well this team can handle pressure and how far their attacking brand of cricket can take them. Their bowlers will have a huge task, and hence, let’s view their top 5 bowlers to watch out for in the upcoming tournament:

Jofra Archer

After being out of the cricket field for so long and now back in the team, Jofra Archer is for sure someone who will have a lot of eyes upon him. Archer is a fantastic pace bowler who can bowl in all the phases of a cricket match and can nail the perfect yorker. He will be Jos Buttler’s trump card in the tournament.

Mark Wood

The pace at which Mark Wood bowls is just phenomenal, and that is something that will be of immense use on slow pitches for the England team. If Wood can bowl at the perfect length with his express pace, he would light up the World Cup with his thunderbolts.

Sam Curran

The left-arm pacer who won the Player of the Tournament award in the previous World Cup and was the Player of the Match in the final, Sam Curran, is also a bowler to watch out for. Sam Curran is a lethal bowler if the conditions suit him, which is expected to happen next month.

Adil Rashid

Adil Rashid has taken 13 wickets in the last 10 innings for the England cricket team in T20Is. Being the only leg spinner in the team, Adil Rashid will be responsible for taking wickets in the middle overs and creating pressure on the batters.

Will Jacks

On the spin-friendly pitches, England could use the part-time off-spin of Will Jacks, who bowls in a fantastic manner in T20s. He can be of immense value to the team as a part-timer and provide crucial breakthroughs.
