Australia’s cricket squad has kicked off their training sessions in Barbados ahead of the upcoming World Cup, with all 15 members attending the first full practice. The team, led by captain Mitchell Marsh, displayed high energy and camaraderie during the session at the University of West Indies campus. Players like Glenn Maxwell, Ashton Agar, Marcus Stoinis, and Cameron Green were seen honing their skills in the nets despite intermittent showers and challenging weather conditions.

Maxwell, who had recently arrived after a long journey from Australia, was eager to get started with his World Cup campaign following a disappointing IPL season. Green, on the other hand, displayed his power-hitting prowess, drawing admiration from teammates and onlookers. The team bonding was evident as players enjoyed each other’s company, both on and off the field.

The Australian squad seems united under their leadership group, aiming to achieve a rare feat of holding all three major world trophies simultaneously. Coach Andrew McDonald emphasized the importance of team bonding and enjoying the Caribbean experience. The players, including the reserves who are yet to join, are gearing up for their opener against Oman with a positive and enthusiastic mindset.

As they continue their preparations for the World Cup, the Australian team is focused on maximizing their time in Barbados and making the most of their training sessions. With a strong sense of unity and determination, they are ready to take on the challenge and strive for success on the cricket field.
