3 reasons why Australia are one of the favourites to win the T20 World Cup in 2020

#3 Attacking fast bowlers

Mitchell Starc

T20 cricket is not just about runs; wickets matter a lot in winning matches, as they are the best way to restrict the run-flow. Having the ability to break partnerships is an important characteristic of any successful T20 team, especially when pitted against good batting sides.

That is where Australia have the edge, as they are blessed with potent attacking fast bowlers in the form of Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins. Even the supporting group of Kane Richardson and Billy Stanlake are good enough to keep chipping away with wickets.

These bowlers are not only quick but also very tall, and that can come in really handy in the bouncy Australian conditions when the batsmen are going for boundaries. Moreover, in Starc, Australia have one of the best fast bowlers in limited overs cricket; If he gets his radar right, the left-arm quick can wreak havoc against any batting line-up.
