The mighty force in the form of the Australian cricket team that has won 6 ICC ODI World Cup titles, 1 World Test Championship (WTC) and 1 ICC T20 World Cup trophy, crashed out of the Super 8s after Bangladesh failed to defeat Afghanistan in their final Super8 game.
The reigning ICC ODI World champions had an agonizingly-painful exit from the World Cup and had to bear the brunt of a couple of losses at the hands of India and Afghanistan in the Super 8s; both seeking redemption from the ICC ODI World Cup 2023.
Australia still had a decent campaign, even though they would be gutted to not be able to go to the next round.
In this article, we take a look at 3 Australian players who performed well in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024:
1. Travis Head
ICC Tournaments and Travis Head’s enigmatic performances! This is a match made in heaven and this is a reality. Travis Head once again had a fantastic ICC T20 World Cup 2024 campaign and finished as the leading run-getter of the Australian team.
Opening the batting, the southpaw scored 255 runs in this campaign, with a good average of 42.50.
2. Adam Zampa
Magician Adam Zampa performed exceedingly well in this ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and stymied the momentum and confidence of the opposition teams with his extraordinary performances with the white-cherry.
Zampa bagged 13 wickets in the tournament and finished as the leading wicket-taker for Australia. His figures of 4/12 in the group-stage encounter versus Namibia was a special performance and it helped the Ozzies, cruise into the Super 8s of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
3. Marcus Stoinis
