STRENGTH

The biggest strength of Australia is the presence of match winners on the side. Maxwell, Stoinis, Warner, Tim David, etc., have the ability to change the course of the match in a few deliveries.

WEAKNESS

The spin department is one of the weaknesses that will haunt them in the tournament. They lack world-class spinners on the side. Since the tournament will be played in Australia, that have big grounds, the role of spinners will be of paramount importance.

But, barring Adam Zampa and Aston Agar, the team lacks quality spinners, which can negatively affect their performance.

OPPORTUNITIES

The biggest opportunity Australia will be eying to cash in is the pace bowling department, which can dismantle the opposition batting order with pace and bounce.

They have world-class pace bowlers such as Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, and Kane Richardson, and these players will be eying to make an impact on the pitches that they are used to playing for years.

THREATS
