T20 World Cup 2024: Rating top teams based on their bowling unit
Most of the team has strengthened their bowling attack this time instead of going with a batting-heavy line-up.
4. England (7.5/10)
Defending champions England have plenty of bowling options and quality all-rounders in their line-up. Jofra Archer is back in the team after a long gap but his efficiency is yet to be determined. Mark Wood and Reece Topley will act as specialist pacers, while all-rounders Sam Curran and Chris Jordan will contribute their share.
England's spin department will heavily rely on Adil Rashid. The leg-spinner is currently the world's No.1 T20 bowler and will aim to remain at No.1 in the coming month with impressive performances in the USA and West Indies. Rashid will be assisted by all-rounders Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone in the middle-overs.
3. Australia (8/10)
Australia have a wide range of bowling options. Led by left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc, their pace unit includes Pat Cummins, Nathan Ellis, Josh Hazlewood, captain Mitchell Marsh and all-rounders Marcus Stoinis and Cameron Green. Starc was adjudged Player of the Match in IPL 2024 Qualifier 1 and Final, proving why he is called a big-match player.
Leg-spinner Adam Zampa is expected to play a key role for Australia in the T20 World Cup 2024. He has a lot of variation that can be very effective on West Indies' tricky surfaces. Ashton Agar and all-rounder Glenn Maxwell will provide necessary assistance in the spin department.
