Usman Khawaja and Glenn Maxwell believe a revolution led by Andrew McDonald and George Bailey is key to Australia’s year of success.
The deal comes just two weeks after the 2023 cricket World Cup final played out on free-to-air TV,and a week after the federal government reaffirmed its commitment to sports anti-siphoning measures.
In an exclusive interview,Glenn Maxwell explains why he’s spurned further T20 riches and is desperate to wear the baggy green again. He also opens up on his freak golf course accident.
Selectors will pick the Australia squad this week for the Pakistan Test series. But Pat Cummins and Andrew McDonald remain non-committal on David Warner’s involvement.
Who from Australia’s World Cup-winning team will be around for the title defence in four years’ time? And who is the next generation?
His critics said he was too “woke” to be Australia’s cricket captain,but the all-conquering Cummins has demonstrated conspicuous leadership on and off the field.

Australian captain Pat Cummins has arrived back in Sydney after the World Cup as Mitch Marsh cast doubt over Travis Head’s availability for the team’s first T20 against India.
Travis Head is the reason why Australia won the World Cup. No man had a greater impact in the finals or won more games off his own bat. But the ICC was right not to have him in its team of the tournament.
