Australia's domination over cricket is on the verge of ending.In the last Decade we have seen the success story of australia .From world cup to champions trophy it won every tournament in which it played.It remained the Number one test and oneday team until recently.From 2001 till 2010 it remained the number one team in the world . The team made several records such as winning 16 match on the trot under the captaincy of the great steve waugh. Australia have won the 2003 and 2007 cricket world cup without loosing a single match forget about loosing no one was able to challenge them .Its domination over the world cricket was possible only because of its players like Ricky Ponting,Adam Gilchrist,Matthew Hayden,Justin Langer,Shane Warne,Glen Mcgrath etc.
The player mentioned above are the greats of the game they could trun the game at there will.Players like Gilchrist and Hayden in one day hayden and langer in test most of the time gave australia a strong start they could demolish any attack in the world .Players Like Ponting,Martin played there part in the team who can forget the amazing patnership between these two at the final of world cup 2003 against india.Players like warne and mcgrath could rip apart any attack.
But things have changed with the retirement of these player australia is not able bring new players who culd fill the shoes of these players.That is the main reason for the poor perfomance of the team in the recent past.
Now cricket Australia should look forward and nurture new talent so that they can fill the vaccum which has been created by the retitrment of the players.
