ICC World Cup 2019: England's first choice playing XI
England have not reached the semifinals of the World Cup since 1992 and are keen to stop that run.
9. Jofra Archer
Right when the deadline clock was ticking towards the end, Jofra Archer managed to squeeze into the 15-man squad at the expense of David Willey‘s exclusion. That was a very harsh call considering the work-rate of Willey despite being poor on occasions, but these are the kind of harsh calls which makes up champion squads.
One of the main reasons he came in was to ensure their death bowling improves. England have been getting away despite some poor bowling performances in the death all thanks to their batsmen, but the selectors and captain didn’t let this issue go under the carpet. They summoned it, did some corrections and now it is the duty of the young fast bowler to deliver for the Three Lions.
