World Cup of Darts: Team line-ups

With nations represented by two-player teams, competitors are initially selected based on the PDC Order of Merit, where two or more players are ranked. If players do not wish to enter, then their fellow countrymen next on the Order of Merit will get called up - as is the case with John Henderson and Robert Thornton representing Scotland rather than Peter Wright and Gary Anderson.
