Andrew Symonds and Brad Hogg were the fulcra of the squad. Symonds straightaway proved his worth in his debut world cup match by scoring 143 not out against Pakistan, which Australia went on to win setting the very tempo of the tournament. Post-retirement, Symonds has tried his hand at rugby being an ardent fan of Brisbane Broncos in the childhood. Symonds also appeared in Indian reality show, Big Boss season 5 and also acted in a Bollywood movie, Patiala House starring Akshay Kumar.

Deemed as one of the most successful left-arm chinaman bowlers, Brad Hogg debuted in 1996 with the Australia squad. Hogg went into the world cup as an understudy to the legendary spinner, Shane Warne. But once, Warne was suspended it was up to the left arm wrist spinner to take out tricks from his bag. Hogg petrified the Indian batsmen in the group stage match where India was bundled within a meager total of 125 runs. Hogg retired in 2008 after his divorce but resumed his career in T20 in 2011. He now works as a TV commentator.
