Jofra Archer was one of the key performers of England who steered his team to their first World Cup title. He proved his worth in the squad while performing in the Pakistan series at home. When England Cricket Board announced their preliminary squad for the World Cup, they didn't include Archer. Due to his excellent performances during the Pakistan series before the mega event, he replaced David Willey to play in this World Cup.

Archer scalped 20 wickets in 11 matches with an economy of 4.57. His best bowling figures are 3/27 in the opening of the tournament against South Africa. He ended up being the joint third-highest wicket-taker.
