Australia World Cup 2015 Squad, Players List

Hosts Australia and New Zealand can easily be called the top contenders to get the claim on the World Cup 2015 title, snatching it from India’s hand. Australia has its reasons as well, with some good recent ODI record and some good players who can help Aussies claim the World Cup title.

Australia Squad for World Cup 2015

Michael Clarke (capt), George Bailey (vc), David Warner, Aaron Finch, Shane Watson, Steven Smith, Brad Haddin (wk), Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Marsh, James Faulkner, Mitchell Johnson, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins, Xavier Doherty

Michael Clarke is not fit, and that was the reason for Steve Smith to take on the captaincy of the Australian team against India in the test series, and he has to be proven fit before the end of January to take part in the World Cup 2015, and if he fails to do so, it will be George Bailey captaining the side.

It isn’t the first time that Australia will lift the cup if they win, as the team has won once in 1987. This time, the team is in Pool A, along side England, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, New Zealand, Afghanistan and Scotland.
