ICC ODI World Cup 2023: The 13th edition of the ICC Cricket World Cup is scheduled to take place in India, a renowned stronghold for spinners. However, the cricket landscape has undergone a significant transformation over the past few years. Fast bowlers are no longer known as a supporting role during the middle overs in the Indian subcontinent; they now play a significant role in taking wickets.

Teams with strongest fast bowling attack in ICC World Cup 2023

5. New Zealand

Boult and Southee, a formidable new ball pairing, are expected to unite one last time in the upcoming World Cup, aiming to clinch the trophy. The New Zealand pace attack is well-rounded, with players familiar with Indian conditions. Boult, Henry, and Southee excel with the new ball, while Fergusson and Milne bring raw pace to disrupt lineups in the middle overs. Jamieson, with his height and angles, has a unique advantage that adds to their attack.

4. South Africa

Prominent bowlers like Rabada, Nortje, Ngidi, and Jansen, who are expected to be the preferred choices, bring valuable experience in Indian conditions. Rabada, Parnell, and Ngidi are well-equipped for the new ball duties, while Jansen and Nortje can be formidable weapons during the middle overs.

3. Pakistan

Shaheen Afridi is currently among the world's premier new-ball bowlers and will carry the weight of significant expectations to excel in conditions resembling his home soil. Naseem has showed remarkable control and consistency with the ball, forming a potent new-ball partnership alongside Shaheen. Rauf is renowned for his aggressive style, delivering raw pace and generating bounce. This trio possesses the capability to consistently bowl in the high 140s, execute pinpoint yorkers, and manipulate the swing of the ball at their choice.

2. India

India, two-time champions and hosts of the 13th edition consists of a formidable pace attack capable of dismantling any opposition. Siraj, formerly the top-ranked ODI bowler, and Bumrah are likely to open the bowling, while Shardul, known for taking crucial wickets, can be sent at any stage. Shami, an experienced veteran, adds further strength to the lineup. However, it's worth noting that the host team lacks a left-arm seamer in their ranks.

1. Australia

Australia, considered strong favoruites for the World Cup, stands out as a team with exceptional talent across all departments. The trio of Starc, Hazlewood, and Cummins is arguably the best in the world, having not only remarkable abilities but also a track record of outstanding performances. Starc, known for his big-stage deliveries, will team up with the consistently reliable Hazlewood. Captain Pat Cummins, renowned for his robotic accuracy, will manage the middle overs, supported by all-rounders Stoinis and Marsh. Australia's well-rounded squad makes them a formidable contender.
