Australia is  definitely one of the worst team against turning ball.

Tough for V.tall batters who are not using their reach to play sweep or play rt from the pitch of the ball , staying low for 40 overs is hard

CT 2017 - Australia failed to reach semi   

WC2019 - Australia fumbled at the semi

WT20 2021  Fluked a cup with series of toss wins

WT20 2022 Home cup failed badly. failing to reach semis

WC 2023  Fumbled their way to final and won an all improtant toss and India choked

WT20 2024 - failed badly knocked out by Afghanistan

CT 2025 - failedy badly with their bench players

WT20 2026 - Eliminated first round

 

 

basically they had two lucky editions of world cups.

India v Aus 2027 WC SF Centurion.  Josh Inglis to knock us out of the tournament.

You read it here first.

I'd rather face Aussies in SF than F. They are much more beatable in QF/SF stage.

They won the ones that mattered, 15 and 23 WCs. One WTC. Best test record in post-2016 period, their average era is better than our greatest era (W/L 2 vs 1.85).

They had no buisness winning the T20 World Cup 2021 or the World Cup 2023. 

 

In 2021 - England was the strongest team while Pakistan had the momentum but Aussies lucked out with toss and pooks choking an already won game against Mathew Wade of all people.

 

In 2023 - Rohit and Dravid basically handed them the trophy over by meddling in pitch preparation and making it a win toss win match scenario.

Yes be defeated them in 2007 World T20 semifinals, 2011 quaterfinal, 2016 World T20 virtual quaterfinal , 2025 champion trophy semifinal.  

 

Only time we lost during this period in semifinal was in 2015 world cup.

But thank God they won 21 WC. Pooks would have been unbearable had they won there, that SF was one of the most enjoyable wins for me. NZ was waiting in the F to bend over to both sides anyway, so that SF was the virtual F.

Facing them in SENA is different kettle of fish.

It's fun to have a tournament outside Asia but sucks so bad that our team is old and jaded and washed up..

It is going to be 2015 repeat

That Afridi spell in first over.  You'd have thought this guy would be world beater moving the ball at 91-92mph lol.. and now he is trundling at 132kph and with his decline you got PCT in a slump as well:phehe:

Once again down to this "top heavy" approach of India. Once we lost pandya it became even worse .

Ollie peake is the best Australian from under-19 bunch. Made a 100 against England in the u19 world cup. He looks not ready for this level like Vaibhav or even Ayush.

Even in tests they are better dude. Post 2015 record, they are still ahead of us. As a cricket nation, absolutely no comparison. We are much better in T20Is, may need another 10-15 years to get there in longer formats.

But they are nowehere close to 2015 level.

 

2015 Aus is ATG, easily better than every single ODI team India has fielded in its history. Power-packed MO of Clarke, Watson, Maxwell, Haddin. Faulkner at 8, Johnson 9, Starc 10. 

 

Johnson, Starc, Hazlewood pace trio. Cummins was warming the benches. 

 

@Nikhil_cric 2015 Aus is almost at the level of their 2000s side. Look at the crazy batting depth, Starc at 10, back then he used to take his batting more seriously as well !!!!

Aussies mature a bit late compared to our guys, late 20s to early 30s.

Pooks were genuinely good in 21 edition. Might even call them the best team of the tourney. Unreal Aussie clutchness saved the event.

Absolutely. 2015 Australia was as good as 2007 marauding Aussies.  Very underrated ODI team

Aus is not a super team anymore, yet they have won wtc, odi wc and t20i world cup in this period.this is not bad at all.

They played him each and every game and injury was inevitable and after injury he was not the same bowler.

Have not seen him in intnl game but played couple of good knocks in the bbl as the finisher down the order.
