England’s own Jason Roy is also one of the leading contenders for leading the run chart in the upcoming 2019 ICC World Cup. Roy has 2536 runs in 70 ODIs with 6 centuries and a best of 180 and a strike rate of 104.23. Roy is a dangerous batsman at the top of the order and often takes liberties with the fielding restrictions in the first 10 overs.

He has the power to hit the ball long and keep going at a furious pace throughout the innings once he gets set. Roy was one of the chief architects of England’s resurgence as an ODI superpower which has gotten them the no.1 spot in the ODI team rankings. Jason Roy will be amongst the top choices for being the leading run scorers of the upcoming 2019 ICC World Cup tournament.
