Australian cricket team had the worst summer they have had to face in a while, in 2013. Their abysmal performance has rendered them less of a solid cricket team that they were initially. I mean I am talking about the team that nurtured the talents of players such as Steve Waugh, Ricky Ponting, Shane Watson, David Warner, Michale Hussey et al. who are true legends in their own. Their girth, strength and ability alone could intimidate their competition into wobbly pudding. It was the team that was the pictured as mascot of the cricket teams everywhere. But what the world has recently seen of this cricket team is a mere shadow of the once most powerful team in the world. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

It has been one disastrous test series after another. When india and Australia was tied in a 1-1 result in the Twenty twenty series in the beginning of the year itself, people should have taken it as indicator. Back to back ties occurred at the One Day International series and twenty twenty series against West Indies in March. There was a brief moment of jubilation when the Australian cricket team took home the winner’s ...
... trophy in the Australian tour of West Indies. It was an added incentive as the Australian cricket team beat the West Indies at foreign turf. This motivated them to stay on top of their game and win The Frank Worrell Trophy, again beating the West Indies, in April.

Their ebullient spirit was broken in July when they faced the England cricket team at the NatWest Series. They team from down under got beaten royally by the Brits who won the series 4-0. They refused to show their face and went into hiding, dodging any of the questions that came their way. After another victory surging wave, they fell down flat on their bottoms in the Australian Test series against South Africa which the latter won by 309 runs. The Sri lank and Australia ODI series ended in tie while the twenty twenty between the same ended with Sri Lanka wiping out the trophy and the smiles on the Australian cricketers’ faces.

For outstanding results in the upcoming season, a desperate Australia has pinned all of her faith on a few of her players of which prominent opener David Warner profile was one. But as Australia’s luck would have it Warner ended up with a fractured left thumb that might put him out of the matches for a while.
