2007 Cricket World Cup squads

The captains of the 2007 Cricket World Cup.

This is a list of the squads picked for the 2007 Cricket World Cup. This was the ninth Cricket World Cup tournament and was held between 14 March and 28 April 2007. The sixteen teams asked to announce their final squads by 13 February 2007. Changes were allowed after this deadline at the discretion of the ICCs Technical Committee in necessary cases, such as due to player injury. In order to aid the teams to select the final 15, teams were given the option to announce a 30-man squad by mid-January, with the understanding that the final squad would be picked from these 30 players. ^[1] However, this was not strictly adhered to – several of England's final 15 came from outside the initial 30, for example. The oldest player at the 2007 Cricket World Cup was Anderson Cummins (40) of Canada while the youngest was Alexei Kervezee of the Netherlands.

Pakistan

Pakistan announced a preliminary squad on 10 January 2007, ^[27] and the final 15-man squad on 13 February 2007. ^[28] Both Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Asif were included, despite their ongoing doping case, where the Pakistan Cricket Board had first banned them before a tribunal reprieved the two. In a twist of fate, both players were replaced by Mohammad Sami and Yasir Arafat on 1 March due to knee and elbow injuries respectively. ^[29]

Pakistan had already made one change due to injury: Azhar Mahmood joined the squad in place of Abdul Razzaq, who suffered a knee injury during a practice session on 26 February. ^[30]

Coach: Bob Woolmer (died during tournament) and Mushtaq Ahmed (acting coach) ^[31]
