Which five seamers (from Asia) would you pick in a squad for World Cup 2019?

[Kohli The King of Chase]

I would have these 5 seamers from ASIA in the squad

2 NEW BALL BOWLERS:

AMIR
BHUVANSEHWAR

2 OLD BALL BOWLERS:

HASSAN
BUMRAH

1 AR:

PANDYA

5 SEAMERS:

PANDYA(AR)
AMIR
BHUVANSEHWAR
HASSAN
BUMRAH

MY SEAM ATTACK IN PLAYING 11 WOULD BE,

8.PANDYA
9.AMIR
10.BHUVNESHWAR
11.HASSAN( HE HAS AN UPPER HAND OVER BUMRAH DUE TO THE PERFORMANCE AGAINST TOP TEAMS AND IN THE CT)

Apart from these there are other seamers, like SHAMI, JUNAID and FIZZ.

Special sorry to Bangla bros, for ignoring FIZZ, as he can't make the 5 seamers' list.

oh hard times for bangla fans....i agree with ur selection but pandya??? for all round abilities??

 

[WhenSultansBowled]

I think you are too harsh on Shami, Junaid and Fizz. All three of them are better than Bhuvneshwar and Bumrah.

If I have to pick 5 pacers from SC then I'd go with: Amir, Hasan, Shami, Fizz and Pandya (best fast bowling AR).

You need an AR, in 5 seamers, if you had to play 4 seamers in 11. You can't play 4 genuine seamers, in modern cricket. And, PANDYA is the best Seam AR(from ASIA) ATM.

What is your definition of best seam AR? For starters i can only see matthews in the icc rankings (ranked 4 ) and no sign of Pandya.

He has just now started his career, how can u expect him to be in top 10.

Be logical.

If u don't know the definition, sorry I have no time to explain u.

And I can't see amir as a top 5 seamer since he isn't even in the top 20 odi bowlers in the ICC rankings

 

[Pollack]

1)Shami
2)Amir
3) hasan
4) bumrah
5) Pandya

yes but he won his side the CT by taking 3 top order wickets in the final..

 

[Kohli The King of Chase]

PANDYA is the best seam AR from ASIA atm

So did faulknar in 2015 world cup and irfan pathan in 2007 t20 world cup

sometimes potential and a few series with swing makes some cricketers automatic legends
