Hit – David Warner

In this World Cup, the defending champions had a lot of questions to answer and they did it by their actions on the field. Aaron Finch-led side reached the semi-finals and stayed true to their reputation in the mega events. The batting mantle was carried by the skipper along with the star of the team, David Warner who announced his return to internationals in style.

The left-hander justified the faith shown by the Australian selectors. Warner gathered 647 runs in the tournament at an average of 72. His aggressive approach helped the team in getting brisk starts. David stroked 3 centuries and particularly his knock of 166 against Bangladesh proved his hunger for success.

Flop – Glenn Maxwell

While the top-order of Australia was having a gala time, the middle-order including Glenn Maxwell failed to convert the good work done by them. The X-factor of Men in Yellow spent most of his time in the dressing room. His longest stay on the field with the bat was against Sri Lanka where he faced 25 balls for his 46.

Apart from that Maxwell was dismissed 8 times in the space of 83 deliveries which is not acceptable from a player who has played more than 100 ODIs. The Big Show even skipped the IPL for the preparations of the championship but his journey turned out to be a no-show.
