The 2027 ODI World Cup is still about a year away, but Team India’s preparations have intensified. The biggest question is that how will India’s fast bowling attack be in this World Cup to be held in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia? First of all, let us tell you that according to the current FTP, India had to play a total of 27 ODIs before the 2027 World Cup. Of these, 6 matches have been played against Afghanistan and England. This means that now India has about 21 ODI matches left before the World Cup, although there may be changes in the schedule in future.
5 pacers of Atul Wasan
Meanwhile, former Indian fast bowler Atul Wasan has chosen the pace attack of his choice for the 2027 World Cup. According to Vasan, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana – these four fast bowlers are almost certain. Regarding Harshit Rana, Atul Wasan believes that the team management is not just looking at him as a fast bowler, but is also preparing him as a player who can also bat usefully at number 8. Considering the importance of a long batting line-up in ODI cricket, this can become his biggest strength. But the most interesting name is Gurnoor Brar.
Will Gurnoor get the ticket?
Atul Wasan believes that Gurnoor Brar has an excellent understanding of white-ball cricket. Be it the new ball or death overs, he knows how to bowl according to the conditions. His yorkers also consistently fall at the right place. This is why Vasan sees him not as a backup but as a strong contender in the 2027 World Cup squad. If for some reason there is a need for an additional fast bowler, then in Vasan’s view, Prince Yadav can also be a good backup option for Team India.

What will happen to Shami-Bhuvi?
Now let’s talk about those two experienced bowlers, on whom the Indian pace attack could survive for a long time – Mohammed Shami and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Atul Wasan believes that the selectors are now looking ahead and their thinking is on preparing the team of the future. For this reason he does not think that Shami or Bhuvneshwar Kumar will be able to return in the 2027 ODI World Cup. That is, if Atul Wasan’s prediction proves correct, then India’s fast bowling attack in the 2027 World Cup could be something like this.
Prince Yadav can be a backup option if needed. Now the biggest question for you – do you agree with this pace attack of Atul Wasan? Or do you think that an experienced bowler like Mohammed Shami should still get a chance?
