Why is the Australia men’s and women’s cricket team so good?

After seeing the achievements of both the teams, this kind of question definitely comes into the mind of people. However, there can be many reasons for this, as Australia’s domestic cricket is considered very strong as well as big players who are outside the international team or in their spare time are also seen playing domestic tournaments.

Tournaments such as the Sheffield Shield a first-class cricket tournament for men, the Marsh One Day Cup as a List A tournament, and the franchise-based Big Bash League for T20 cricket, started in 2011. Earlier, the domestic level T20 cricket tournament KFC 20 Twenty Big Bash was played here, which was deactivated and the Big Bash League was started.

Apart from this, the Women’s National Cricket League has organized as a List A cricket tournament for women and the Women’s Big Bash League for T20 cricket. The standard of all these tournaments is much higher than the Indian domestic tournaments. Although the level of IPL in India is higher than that of the Big Bash League, but the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy is organized at the domestic level.

While only a select few players who have performed well in domestic cricket get a place in the IPL, almost all domestic Australian players take part in the Big Bash League. Although women’s Test cricket is not given that much importance so far, there is currently no first-class cricket tournament for women in Australia.
