The 2022-23 Summer for Australia’s Cricket Team was quite a decent one apart from the T20 WC. The Aussies registered Test Series wins over West Indies & South Africa and almost have qualified for the ICC World Test Championship (WTC 2021-23) final.

Australian Women continued their dominance as they won Commonwealth Games and thrashed India in their backyard in a T20I Series. The Aussies would be hoping that they defend their T20 WC title in February in South Africa which promises to be an enthralling contest.
