The reliable duo of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami will have a great responsibility on their shoulders in this oncoming T20 World Cup 2022. There are also other key pacers of India like Bhuvneswar Kumar, Mohammed Siraj and probably Harshal Patel but the reason behind picking these two is their ability to extract the pace and bounce from the juicy tracks of Australia.
On the other hand both are perfectly accurate with their line and lengths, this added skill make them even more dangerous with the decent assistant for pacers at the Australian venues.
#2. Boult-Southee (NZ).
The veteran pace duo of New Zealand Trent Boult and Tim Southee will as usual play the key role in the fast bowling department of Kiwi’s. In the 2015 ICC World Cup Boult was the second highest wicket taker of the tournament, so on this Australian track his chances of plunging wickets will be sky high.

Along with him the disciplined swing bowling of Tim Southee can also do wonders for the New Zealand side. Though the format is T20 but the initial six overs could mostly decide the result of the games.
#3. S.Afridi-H.Ali (Pak).
As per the ICC rankings Pakistan is consistently doing well in the T20 format from the last couple of years. The Babar Azam leading side will come up with the intent to prove their mettle in this forthcoming T20 World Cup. The Southpaw pacer Shaheen Afridi along with the veteran Hasan Ali will definitely grab the most advantage from these substantial pitches of Australia.
The 90mph+ speed of Afridi will test the opposition openers from all corners, on the other hand the surprising skidding movement can reside at the way of Hasan Ali.
#4. Rabada-Nortje (SA).
In the listicle the final pair has been chosen from the South African side which consisted of Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje. In the previous series against Australia both of these bowlers picked up more than 10 wickets by conceding runs with a miser economy of below 6. These figures display the paramountcy of these pair when they bowl on the Australian pitches.
In this T20 World Cup South Africa is coming by punching all the strong T20 sides of the world at their own forts, so they will be highly anticipated regarding this tournament. The third pacer of Pakistan Haris Rauf can also mess up the opposition batters with his lethal pace in the bowling.
