    What an impact Jofra Archer has had. To come in to a settled, winning side, just before a World Cup and have the impact he had is special.

    Since his debut in May last year, he is the eighth highest wicket-taker in format and England’s second highest behind Chris Woakes.

    But it's not just the wickets and pace that he brings, it's the control. Of anyone to take 20+ wickets in that time he’s got the best economy rate at just 4.63. He very rarely gives a batsman a free ball and that's why he's made this team.

    Back to raw pace...

    Since his debut in 2015 Rashid Khan has taken 133 wickets, which is more than anyone else with Adil Rashid next on 128.

    Of those wickets, 37 have come against Test-playing teams (mainly West Indies, Pakistan and Sri Lanka) at an average of 25.67.

    In last year's World Cup he took 6-416 at an average of 69.33. Hmmm.

    I may be very alone in this but I'm a bit surprised that Rashid Khan is in.

    Don't get me wrong, I think he's a superb Twenty20 bowler but I'm not yet convinced about ODI cricket.

    His stats at the moment are superb, but a lot of those wickets are against non-Test playing nations. It will be interesting to see if he's still in people's XIs in three or five years' time once Afghanistan have played against the bigger teams more.

    Time for the spinner next...

  9. Postpublished at 13:25 British Summer Time 17 June 2020

    Since his ODI debut in 2010, he has taken the second most wickets (178) in the format behind Lasith Malinga (232). But, most importantly, he does it at World Cups. He has taken 49 wickets in 18 games at an average of 14.8 – the fifth most of all time. Ridiculous numbers.

    He also has got a highest score of 52 not out, so he is a useful option down the order.

    Ps. England fans, I know that top clip isn't nice to see back. But, wow, what a delivery. Unplayable.

    Pace, swing, left-arm variation - a banker.

    Who are the 35% not picking Mitchell Starc?

  14. Who missed out in the middle order?published at 13:16 British Summer Time 17 June 2020

    England Test captain Joe Root is the player to just miss out to Ravindra Jadeja. There are now only 52 votes between the pair.

    Some big names miss out in the middle order, though, with Steve Smith picking up 31% of the vote, Babar Azam 28%, MS Dhoni 25% and Eoin Morgan 22%.

    Interesting thoughts, Nitin.

    But Andre Russell averages 27.2 in ODI cricket. That is nowhere near good enough to make a world XI.

    No good options at six is a big call too. You could have dropped Stokes down and had Joe Root or Steve Smith. Or even by leaving Stokes at five, you had the choice of Eoin Morgan and Ross Taylor, among others, at six.

    Nitin: There was no Russell in options at 7, so have to play Buttler at 7. It left no good option for no. 6, resulting in selection of Pooran.

    That's the middle order done.

    What do people think so far? Happy with the way the team is shaping up? Or are you outraged someone has missed out?

    I should add at this point, the left-arm spinner is the player who snuck in by the skin of his teeth.

    He's currently 54 votes ahead of the next best middle-order option...

    Since making his ODI debut in 2009, Jadeja has taken the third most wickets in the format - behind Lasith Malinga and Shakib Al Hasan.

    He's also scored the eighth most runs for India in that time, so he's clearly a very good player. But a world XI, hmm. I'm not sure.

  20. Postpublished at 13:05 British Summer Time 17 June 2020

    Don't get me wrong, I think Ravindra Jadeja is a very talented cricketer.

    He's good with the bat, very good with the ball and a superb fielder.

    But he doesn't even make India's first-choice XI half of the time. He only played in one game in last summer's World Cup.

    A wildcard pick.
