The teams in this world cup contains alot of young players. It's amazing how few names we could think of.

I think there will be a lot, it just won't happen straight away. The likes of Root and Smith for example, are unlikely to play the next World Cup, will they bother with any ODI's after this?

Yeah who knows about the next world cup many players may retire in between. I dont know about Root but Smith may (and I think should) retire and focus on test cricket alone.

Won't surprise me if David Miller calls it after the WC. Rassie Van Der Dussen and Wayne Parnell also a shout. David and Wayne might not even play the WC

Why would VDD retire when he's the second best ODI batsman in the world and just 34?

Don't see him turning down t20 money for ODI for a world cup where he is going to be 38. Probably 2 or maybe 3 years in him, time to cash?

I don't think they'll all retire in the immediate future, but there's a lot of England players probably taking part in their last WC. Roy, Bairstow, Malan, Root, Stokes, Buttler, Moeen, Rashid, Wood and Woakes all spring to mind.

I think Root might just make another

Though I suppose he may call time on white ball to focus on Tests

A 30-year-old pulling the pin on ODIs on the back of four tons in a single World Cup (and counting) is a bitter pill to swallow. T20 is such a wasteland for a guy at the peak of his batting powers. Kinda feels like Phil Mickelson retiring after 6 majors to hit dingers at the local Top Golf centre.
