Former Australian Pacer Dale Steyn Picks His Top 5 Bowlers For The ICC World Cup 

South African legend Dale Steyn is considered to be one of the greatest fast bowlers of his generation. As the 13th edition of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup is less than a week away, former cricketers and experts have started to pick their favourite team to win the World Cup. Along with it, they have also been stating their best batters and bowlers who can be very much instrumental in making their respective teams win. One such expert, Dale Steyn picked his best five fast bowlers for the ICC World Cup. 

From Siraj to Mark Wood

The top five bowlers in this World Cup are Dale’s favourites who are likely to make a big deal for their teams. These are Mohammed Siraj from India, Kagiso Rabada from South Africa, Shaheen Afridi from Pakistan, Trent Boult from New Zealand, and England’s Mark Wood. 

Mohammed Siraj’s immaculate bowling display was something extraordinary during the Asia Cup finals against Sri Lanka. He has topped the charts and is now considered to be as the No.1 bowler in ODI format. His 6-wicket haul has left the fans and even experts speechless. 

The other top bowlers

About Kagiso Rabada, the 39-year old former cricketer said that he is just fantastic and the leader of South African attack. Also, Shaheen Shah Afridi undoubtedly stands as the key for Pakistan to go deep in the tournament. New Zealand’s Trent Boult played his 100th ODI on September 10. His statistical record put him at the top of the league. Being a right handed fast bowler, Mark Wood is the leading fast bowler in the world with an average pace 89 mph since 2020.

South Africa will play its next warm-up match against New Zealand on October 2, in Thiruvananthapuram and will begin it’s World Cup campaign against Sri Lanka on October 7.
