Australians have returned. It seemed right after looking at recent performances of it against England, India. After the retirement of some experienced players, Australian team's performance was not as we expected from the team. But, it is a part of game; every team has to pass through changing and difficult situation.
Now, Australia has recovered itself. Australian team has the superb combination of attacking bat’s men, fast bowlers and match finishing all-rounders. In recent time they produced some believable players such as Glen Maxwell, David Warner, Aaron Finch, George Bailey, James Faulkner, etc. They all are match winner players and performing very well in the matches.
But, one player is rocking and making everyone crazy through his sensational batting performance, his name is James Faulkner. He came into focus through IPL 6 in which his bowling was superb, that time nobody got any idea that he is not only good bowler but more dangerous batsman. His batting talent makes him a perfect match finisher probably best finisher by looking at his previous matches against India in 3rd ODI in 2013, he smashed 64 runs in only just 29 balls, hit 4 sixes in a raw in Ishant Sharma’s over and finished the match in a royal manner. After this, he played again brilliant inning in 5th ODI of same series against India, hit fastest hundred in just only 57 balls, which is the fastest centaury by any Australian batsman in ODI.
He proved again in the 2nd ODI of ongoing ODI series between Aus and Eng that he is a perfect match finisher, He made unbitten 69 runs in only 47 balls with full of sixes and again he changed the match. In this match Australia was nowhere near to win because his 9 wickets were fallen at the score of 244 and target was very far from this stage, they need 57 more runs in just 36 balls. But, James Faulkner didn’t give up and started amazing hitting and gave a sensation win to Australia before 3 balls.
On this amazing inning, many retired players praised this young player and Australian captain also said for him that he is next "Michael Bevan" of our team.
