#4 Australia

The Australians boast of a power packed batting unit. The formidable opening duo of David Warner and Aaron Finch get the Aussies to a flier with their attacking stroke play. Meanwhile, Steven Smith who has an unorthodox yet effective style is a busy bee in the middle overs scoring run for the Kangaroos at a brisk pace.
Down the order, the Aussies have some heavy artillery in the form of Glen Maxwell and Mitchell Marsh who can blow away any attack on their day. The ‘Big Show’ Maxwell has showcased his destructive abilities with the willow by producing some whirlwind innings. Mitchell Marsh brings in an element of freshness to the Aussie batting with his clean ball striking.
In the last season, all-rounder Marcus Stoinis showcased his ball striking ability finishing off some close games for the Aussies. Meanwhile, James Faulkner and Mitchell Starc can use the long handle to great effect in stepping up the scoring rate at the end of an innings.
The Aussies have to be thankful to George Bailey who played some fruitful innings with utmost composure to close out tense game which could swing either way.
