The most consistent champions of the World Cup series, team Australia are the defending champions of World Cup 2019. Team Australia is the most successful team in the tournament’s history.
Australia is the only one team who has won the world cup championship title for the maximum times other than that no other team has even managed to win at least more than 2 times. Whereas, on the other hand, Australia has won the title for 5 times and including the previous 2015 world cup edition. Team Australia defense will start with a June 1 clash against Afghanistan in 2019 World Cup.
Team Australia World Cup Performances
Australia has won their first world cup winning a title in 1987 and from then onwards they have won four other world cup championship trophy in the edition of 1999, 2003, 2007 and 2015.
While talking about the runner up list, team Australia has been there for 2 times such as in 1975 against West Indies and in the year 1996 against Sri Lanka.
In the 2015 edition of the competition, Australia won against New Zealand from seven wickets. However, there is no doubt that it is the most consistent and strongest team but from the last year, the team is struggling to win former competitions to keep up with other teams. In order to defend their championship title, Australia has to work upon it.
Possible Australia Team Players
As the final list is yet to come and is not announced officially so here are the predicted names of team players who are going to play in 2019 World Cup:
Steven Smith (C), David Warner, Aaron Finch, Alex Carey (WK), Travis Head, Gelenn Maxwell, Billy Stanlake, Travis Head, Shaun Marsh, Andrew Tye, Ben Mcdermott, Josh Halewood, Adam Zampa, Chris Lynn, Pat Cummins, Ashton Agar, Marcos Stonis
Team Australia Game Changer Player
The game changer of Australia may possibly be Steve Smith and David Warner who after their one-year bans over the ball-tampering matter got entitled to play as their ban terminate. They may perhaps be the whole game-changer in the competition and the anticipations are already made for these two players that they will do great after coming back after their ban.
