The Australians will be roaring forth as they come to the T20 World Cup 2022 with a side that is teeming with experience, fervour and most importantly the urgency to defend their title. As we delve a bit deeper, we would see that they are already a champion side and the kind of mentality that they bring to the contest is what makes them even more invincible.

In the recently concluded series against India, they posted a rippling showdown with the bat in their hands and pushed all the three contests down to the wire, despite being in hostile alien conditions that left them short of the required numbers. Here are three reasons why Australia is an absolute favourite to lift the T20 World Cup 2022 .

#1 Insane batting depth

Their batting line-up is deep and almost everyone until number 8 can bat. In a T20 contest, like the way, singular knocks can be the defining factor, similarly, if everyone contributes 20-30 odd runs at a decent pace, you still come close to 200. This is exactly what makes Australia so strong. From Aaron Finch in the opening slot till Pat Cummins out at number 8, almost every batter is capable of piling up significant numbers at a breezy pace. When your number 8 has a 50 in just 19 balls in the shortest format of the game, well, the celebrations in the opposition camp isn’t usually on the higher side.

#2 A terrific middle-order

Australia has one of the best middle-orders of the tournament with a perfect blend of hard-hitting strikers and anchors who can come together in the right chemistry and blaze the innings perfectly. From Steve Smith’s herculean resilience to Matthew Wade’s menacing blitzkrieg, this Australian middle-order can totally reshape the fabric of the tournament. And now they have a juggernaut called Tim David in their line-up.

#3 A commanding pacer’s union

Australia has always been known for its bouncy and fast pitches. Well, to eke out perfection on such fast lanes, you need weapons who can fire at a menacing speed of 140 plus clicks. Well, lets have a quick look at the Australian pace trident that features three of the world’s best pacers at the moment, Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins. Imagine these three towering monsters steaming in at you and rattling you with the brutal speed up your sleeves. If you aren’t a man who is used to pace and short balls, maybe you should bring an extra guard for your ribs.
