Australian players with IPL experience
The Indian Premier League (IPL) provides ample stage to not just the domestic cricketers but also to the international players. It helps them adapt to the entire conditions of the nation. This has certainly helped the Australian cricketers more than any other overseas cricketers.
The best options are the two run-machines of Australia, David Warner and Steven Smith, who have the ability to smash even the best bowlers. While they have played the IPL for a long time, they are very familiar with the Indian conditions.
Meanwhile, the pacer Mitchell Starc has also been a part of the cash-rich premier league for two seasons. It will not only give them the perfect adaptability to the Indian condition but will also help them understand the behavioural mechanics of the ball on the pitches.
As some of the Australian players have good experiences in India, they are likely to give very tough competition once again to the hosts India.
