James Faulkner is usually a vital cog in the Australian wheel when it comes to playing the role of the finisher. Despite being predominantly a bowler, Faulkner rose to fame following his exploits with the bat. However, this time, in the World T20, Faulkner failed miserably with the bat. There were no fireworks as he failed to acclimatize himself to the conditions.

However, Faulkner made amends with a stellar performance with the ball. Apart from being Australia’s highest wicket-taker in the tournament with 8 wickets, Faulkner also boasted of the best figures by an Aussie in T20 internationals. His 5/27 against Pakistan ensured that the World T20 for Faulkner didn’t go all that badly.
