# Moeen Ali (England)

England will be in form to win the world cup this time, the entire team looks well balanced apart from some minor pullouts. The inclusion of Moeen Ali cannot be said as an entire surprise, as based on his recent endeavors in the field which made him a prominent player.

But there are other seniors to grope in the slot, why did they take him down as far as experience is considered. His batting and spin adds depth to the line so hope for the better and see him perform.

# Haris Sohail (Pakistan)

World cup for Pakistan is always a surprise to its fans, this time they brought in Haris Sohail almost a newbie to the team. A left hand batsman and a left arm slow bowler will be a fresh change to the squad. A squad known for its spearheads, this will instill some balance to the team which will be clashing India in its first match.

# Rangana Herath (Sri Lanka)

His test performance in 2014 can bag him a place, but there is a big difference to bowl on a 5 day pitch that change every day and the ODI pitches at Australia and New Zealand known for its pace pitches. The experience he carries by his side and the left arm spin might add a much needed variance the team needs.
