T20 World Cup 2021 champions Australia announced their 15-men squad earlier this month for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. This time, all-rounder Mitchell Marsh will lead the team in the marquee tournament. Their first T20 World Cup title came in the 7th edition when Aaron Finch captained the team. Australia lifted the title after defeating New Zealand in the final by eight wickets. Australian pacers Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins, who had a great season with the ball in the IPL 2024, are also part of the team, and after having a great IPL 2024, a better performance is expected from these two.
On the batters list, players like Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh, Tim David, and David Warner are some of the names; however, the decision not to select Jake Fraser McGurk in the squad was a surprising one. The right-handed batter made his name in the IPL 2024 with his aggressive batting skills. McGurk has been added to the reserve list and will travel to the host countries as a reserve player.
