Australia has played 11 games since the Lehmann-Smith-Warner era through the formats. In this, they won three, but they will not be too disappointed in the direction of the team, especially in the game Twenty20 International.
Under new coach Justin Langer and emerging from a tumultuous period, Australia's losses included the single T20I against England and the final of the three series in Zimbabwe against Pakistan. But, a look at the names in their brand sheet and the numbers against them has been promising.
When a new T20I defeated England and New Zealand for the title of Tri-Tasman earlier in the year, they jumped from seventh place in the ICC T20I team rankings to the ° 2
In Zimbabwe, they had the chance to take first place in Pakistan. Although they missed that, they had several members of their inexperienced team who progressed in rankings and record rankings.
Aaron Finch, leading from the front, earned the top T20I score of 172 and took the lead in the No. 1 chart in the scoreboards.
D'Arcy Short, his opening partner, jumped 18 top 10 places with two scores over 40.
The bowlers were led by the seasoned Andrew Tye, who has gone up 41 places to No. 7. Billy Stanlake is ranked in the top 20, bringing 60 places to 19th place with the best points of his career after a series that started with him taking 4/8.
Ashton Agar, Australia's biggest weapon this year that climbed 39 places to 45 among the bowlers, while finding a spot at No. 56 on the all-rounder, a 52-point jump
Glenn Maxwell remains the No. 1 universal, but Agar, Tye (No. 62, up 59 places) and Marcus Stoinis (up 62 to No. 74) have shown that Australia has to precious all-rounders-in
Langer admitted that the team would continue to "look very closely at everything we do", but praised the positives of last month.
"Finchy definitely," he said, supporting the captain of the T20I for the title of captain of an international day
Short, he said, was a "dynamic" player "Arcy began to take steps in this direction today, as we have seen in Big Bash cricket, that 's how it should be. play his cricket. "
Praise to bowlers, Langer I expected that they improve with the experience. "I think looking at the situation as a whole, I was very impressed with how Jhye Richardson and Billy Stanlake tood until today. They are both young cricketers … Billy has been good all along the series. "
Australia, despite all its international success, has never won the world crown of the T20.With the next men's event in 2020 at home, they will be optimistic about the fact that they have the basics of a strong team.
"To have some experienced guys playing well, like Glenn Maxwell, Finchy and AJ Tye are great," said Langer. "In a big team, you usually have eight of these players with a few younger players, we probably have three experienced players with eight very inexperienced players. "
" So, the balance is not quite right for the moment, but with optimism we will find this balance, as we usually do in an Australian cricket team. "
