In our series of World Cup squads articles we will talk about England in this article after we talked about Australia in the previous article. England are also one of the premier teams in the tournament and their squad also has a lot of people talking so we are also here to tell you the full squad and they also have a strong squad of 15 and they will also be a Threat to the other teams going into the World Cup.
Before we talk about the England team it is important to note that Eoin Morgan will not be the captain of the team but it will be Jos Buttler and he has shown that he is not as tactically sound as his predecessor. So, let’s see England 15 for the World Cup.

Strengths
England have a team mixed with youth and experience which is good and they have a good batting order with good fast bowlers as well. Jos Buttler if in form can hammer any opposition. Ben Stokes is also a big strength.
Weaknesses
The absence of Jonny Bairstow in the middle order is a big weakness. The right arm fast bowling is not as strong and they are dependent on Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes a lot.
Opportunities
Alex Hales has the biggest opportunity of them all as he can show that he has changed as a person and he can score runs for England at the top of the order and the rest of the English team have the opportunity to show that they are more of a team than just 2 players.
Threats
Every team is a Threat as any team can take advantage of their fragile batting order and go after their fast bowlers as they do not express pace. England will have to find a way to avoid all these threats.
