What we are looking for are these kind of figures

68 ODIs - 134 wickets at 20.13 econ 4.81 s/r 25.0 - Starc (27)

112 ODIs - 186 wickets at 24.48 econ 4.94 s/r 29.7 - Morkel (32)

I remember Dernbach dropped because he was too expensive but these days England aren't worried about economy because they can chase anything as everyone bats.

Whilst Mark Wood's overall record is nothing special, his economy in the CT was 4.32 and he is, to my mind, England's most effective seamer. With his fragile body, a future as a white ball specialist?

Interesting stats there. Ball with the worst economy rate of the lot it looks like. Not surprising as he's conceded over 80 runs in three ODIs so far this year. I know scoring rates are going up but that is terrible
